The Tiny House Lanterns

 These ornaments are super sweet hanging on a tree.  Each design comes with a set of letters and numbers so you can personalize each one!


 

Make one or make a whole village for your tree, personalize them with names or dates, or craft a mini neighborhood to give as handmade gifts. Each design comes with a set of letters and numbers so you can personalize each one! 


Among the soft twinkle of lights, these miniature houses perch like a tiny illuminated village tucked into evergreen boughs. Their little windows catch the glow and shimmer as if someone is home inside. The holly-topped roof, the midnight-blue starry cottage, the stocking-hung house, and the sweet little church with its bright guiding star—each one looks like it belongs in its own snowy lane. They peek out between ornaments and needles, adding a whimsical, storybook charm to the tree, turning it into a magical neighborhood of tiny Christmas dwellings.

Now that you've seen just how cute they are....

Hanging Christmas Lantern Ornaments


 These delightful hanging lanterns are the kind of crafty magic that instantly makes you feel like you’re living inside a cozy Christmas storybook. Each lantern is a little burst of holiday cheer—glowing softly, showing off charming cut-out designs, and practically begging to be gifted to someone you love. Pop a flameless light source inside them and watch their cozy glow.

 

 
 

Every panel feels like a tiny scene plucked from Christmas morning. They’re lightweight, easy to assemble, and look far more impressive than the time they take to make (your friends will genuinely think you’re a crafting wizard).


Hang them on the tree, line them along the mantel, tuck them into a garland, or give them as thoughtful handmade gifts—because nothing says “you’re special” like a lantern that literally glows with care. They’re festive, fun, and completely irresistible… you may end up making more for yourself than anyone else!

 Check out lighting options at my Amazon Store.

 
These sweet lanterns are available on my Silhouette Design Store .

3D Christmas Tree Lanterns

 These delightful Christmas tree–shaped 3D paper lanterns look like tiny glowing evergreens brought to life. The cutout pattern reveals a soft inner layer—perfect for slipping in a flameless light so the whole design glows gently from within.


 Each lantern seems like the silhouette of a Christmas tree. These are awesome accents for mantels, tabletops, windowsills, or even as part of a charming handmade village display. Light, airy, and wonderfully dimensional, they bring a warm, crafty sparkle to holiday décor. 


Although you probably don't need it, I've created a short video tutorial showing you how to assemble them!

There are two sizes. The regular ones are approximately 6" high and the small trees are approximately 5" tall.

You can find all these designs at my Silhouette Design Store. When you get there, search for "suzanne cannon lantern" to find them!

Merry Christmas!  Let your holidays glow!

Let's Make the Halloween Shadow Box Ornaments

These cuties are ready to swoop in as standup decorations, a glowing shadowbox – or thirdly, a hanging ornament! It’s a triple-threat of Halloween cuteness.  

 


Careful layering does all the magic and don’t worry, no tiny pieces to make you batty. There is plenty of room for your own spooky greeting on the back of this multilayered ornament. You can assemble it flat for easy mailing, or use foam adhesive to add fun dimension and make it a shadow box. Stand the design on top of a light source to see it glow. 

Each design even includes a layer with a hole so you can easily add a string or ribbon and hang the ornament. 

 Each design comes with a support you can add to the back of your frightful creation if it’s a bit tipsy!  

 Fang-tasic fun!

These digital cutting files are available on 

If you're having trouble finding any of these, simply go to my Silhouette profile and search "suzanne halloween shadow box" and you'll find them!
