12 Days of Craftmas: Cozy, Laser-Cut, Holiday Decor

In a world of digital greetings, there's something magical about preserving physical holiday cards. As we continue our 12 Days of Craftmas series, we're excited to share a project that helps you treasure those special seasonal messages for years to come. Get ready to give your cherished holiday cards a home that's as special as the memories they hold!

Meet Ralph: Snail Mail Enthusiast from Austin

Ralph Tyndall, of @ralphtyndalldesigns, is on a merry mission to make snail mail sparkle again. This paper-craft prodigy from Austin brings playful charm to everything he creates, brightening the season one handmade card at a time. With his cozy style and creative flair, Ralph proves that the art of physical correspondence is alive and well – and more magical than ever.

Set the Scene:

To craft like Ralph, create an organized workspace illuminated by twinkle lights and a woodsy-scented candle. Queue up his "Crafting, on the Rocks" playlist featuring Noah Kahan and Carly Rae Jepsen, and keep a bowl of Cheez-Its within reach. If you're lucky, maybe it'll even rain! Now you're ready for some serious Glowforge Holiday Magic.

Crafted from Light Maple Proofgrade Plywood, this charming keeper features laser-cut details that can be personalized with your family name or the year.
