In this post: JOY Free Christmas Printables. Three separate printables to download for instant Christmas decor! Letters are a fun red and black buffalo plaid.
Up today is project #2 featuring red and black buffalo plaid. Oh my gosh am I having fun with this! I promise not to get carried away though. These JOY free Christmas printables are the perfect way to add this print to your decor for basically no money…and even if you have to buy the frames it would still be affordable. I had the black frames and red mats but both are available at any craft store. I printed the letters on white, textured card stock and in ten minutes had new wall art. I also included a bonus printable of a flying, buffalo plaid reindeer. Like my ball ornaments, he turned out pretty cute.
Now…if you don’t want to hang these on your wall, I’ve found some other really fun options. This picture has been pinned a jillion times. It’s no surprise because it’s a doable and easy thing. This idea would be super simple especially if you already had a shelf in place. You could also do something like this which is very cozy and sort of has a farmhouse feel.

Wednesday, November 11, 2015 at 1:59 pmWish my living room was still barn red so that I could do the buffalo plaid theme too!
Just saw some cute small square plates at Target in that pattern $3 for 4!
With our new Panatone “chili” orange I’m going Victorian gold,mercury glass and platinum, muted rust and browns. Totally in a different direction than ever before! I know just how feel with new theme, it gets those creative juices going! After my red, apple green and white for so many years it’s a fun change.

Wednesday, November 11, 2015 at 8:06 amAnn, I just have to say THANK YOU for your emails and all the wonderful ideas for decorating and cooking and all you share with us. I LOVE the Joy printables for Christmas and will change out last year’s printables (which I got so many compliments on) for the Buffalo plaid “Joy” printables. I actually changed my “ribbon” theme this year to this plaid so these printables will fit right in. You’re awesome!

Wednesday, November 11, 2015 at 7:33 amYou always create and share the most beautiful printables and I can’t thank you enough. I love your style and your printables always fit in well with my decor. The buffalo plaid in these prints is fabulous and I am enjoying how you are incorporating this theme in such pretty yet subtle and not overdone ways. Looking forward to seeing what idea you come up with next.

Wednesday, November 11, 2015 at 7:15 amLovely post, Ann Thanks for sharing. What size black frames do you use for the individual “Joy” letters you framed. I have a place to put the 3 frames but I can’t decide what size. I really like yours. Thanks for the delightful post.
Ann Drake says
Wednesday, November 11, 2015 at 8:25 amHi Lu Ann!
The frames are 11 x 14. The mats have an 8 x 10 opening. I got everything a few years ago at Hobby Lobby but any craft store has this sort of thing. Enjoy!

Sunday, December 13, 2015 at 10:25 amHi Ann, I’m fairly new to this sight and love love love all the wonderful creative ideas. I’m really interested in the buffalo plaid J O Y letters, but the space I have to put them will not accommodate such large frames. Is there a way to make the letters smaller to fit a 5×7 frame.
