The odious Christmas beast turned lovable rogue has won us all over in the many film adaptations, and now it’s time to celebrate this big green creature with some Grinch-related crafts!
So grab that Christmas cocoa and pop a squat cause there’s a lot to unpack here.
First up we’re going to try and create the Grinch’s style into a Christmas tree.
That weird long, bristly, troll doll looking style he rocks? Well it can be yours with this adorable tabletop xmas tree.
Find that empty plant pot and use some floral wire to create the desired effect for this curly craft. Top off with an ornament of choice and you’ve got yourself your very own Grinch tree.
I don’t know if you’ve heard, but slime is all the rage right now for crafts. So you’d be foolish not to get stuck in and indulge yourself with these green Grinch slime(just hot water, glue and detergent).
Of course, if you have a young child around they will be asking you to make slime all the time after this one. So proceed with caution.
The Grinch’s story from hateful to happy is one that’s so touching, that the transformation deserves to be recreated visually with this ‘grow the Grinch’s heart’ experiment.
You just get a plastic bottle and balloon at the ready and go to town. This one is going to be fun.
Like the TP roll project, there is so much lost potential with popsicle sticks.
So let’s put them to use with this striking Grinch portrait – green paint and some imagination are necessary, though this one should be fairly easy to pull off.
If you have more time and what to create something truly special for your place then it’s time to borrow granny’s sewing machine and see how much you actually know about sewing.
If you’re up to the challenge make some Grinch-related drinks and party snacks because you’ll be using this pillow for movie night.
After you host the Christmas party of the year you’ll want to give your guests something to remember it by. So make these fun little Grinch party favors and get ready to see everyone’s faces.
A candy cane, holiday ribbon, and spare green feather duster will suffice to ensure everybody leaves your party full of festive spirit and cheer.
Tired of drinking from the same old boring wine glass?
Well I have the perfect solution for you in this craft. Bring life to your evening tipple with these stylish Grinch wine glasses(easy to DIY or cheap to pick up handmade).
For bonus points, fill them with a slightly green looking wine to really get into the spirit.
Now if you have an eye for cute things and want your stocking to reflect that, look no further than these polka dot stockings with pom-poms and ribbons.
Cindy Lou Who would be so proud.
A slightly more innocent Whoville style for those who are more nice than naughty.
You’ll need somewhere cool to hang up your awesome new stockings, so get the tools and pine wood out to put up this custom Grinch wall hanger, sure to impress.
Granted this would probably only come out at Christmas time but it would be a welcoming addition to your holiday decorating.
If you’re a fan of all things green and love hot festive drinks around the holiday season, well then make these Grinchy hot chocolate cups for movie night.
Maybe you can make a batch for your friends too if they’re so lucky.
If you’re after something more rich and decadent, have a go at this green Grinch holiday cake to share with friends. That’s what the Grinch would want.
Cake mix, green food coloring, and red sprinkles are the main ingredients needed for this Christmas treat.
And it bakes pretty easily so it should feel like a stress-free project around the holidays.
Here’s a fun pattern for the sewing & crochet enthusiasts among us.
This crochet scarf pattern will not only keep you warm and cozy on winter nights, but will surely earn you the status of most festive in the neighborhood.
The Grinch has a hard time finding his heart in the film, but with this game it’s up to you to help him find it!
Simply blow up a printout of the Grinch, color as desired (ideally green to stay faithful to the movies), then go to town at this game. A blast for the whole family.
Some people like to put up a sign outside for Santa. Others prefer to let people know the Grinch is in town.
This cool ‘Welcome to Whoville’ sign will have all your friends in adoration over such a cute decoration. And it shouldn’t take much time to put together.
While having an Angel on top of the Christmas tree gives off a more spiritual vibe, an angel can’t quite match the intensity of this Grinch Christmas tree topper.
This one will make your tree incredibly unique and hopefully it’ll keep the Grinch away from your house on Christmas night.
Well with this next craft you can do both. The Grinch is sneaking off with your Christmas lights this year and you couldn’t be happier about it!
To add this into your front lawn you’ll need some plywood, glue, and your toolbox. But if you can get it done your house is sure to win this year’s best decorated competition.
If you want even more of a Grinch theme in your garden you can make(or pick up a copy of) these innocent-looking Whoville residents to charm passers-by.
Simple painted cut-outs, make as many or as few as you want to give your house a Whoville vibe. The handmade style is easy enough but there’s also no harm in picking up copies from Etsy too.
Either way I know these little guys would go well with the ‘Welcome to Whoville’ sign!
