Festive Essential Oil Blends for Christmas Crafts

December 1, 2017 by Shellie Wilson Leave a Comment

 

When the holiday season comes around, there are few things more enjoyable than seasonal
smells and enjoying great crafts. For many people, baking cookies and sweet treats while also
making holiday crafts is a standard tradition of the season. If you also love essential oils, there
are ways you can bring essential oils into your holiday celebrations, and even your Christmas
crafts.

There are blends that can be used in certain crafts that you make, increasing the festive
feel of your crafts. You can also use oils in a diffuser while you’re working on the crafts, to have
everything smelling great.

Here are some great festive essential oil blends that are perfect for Christmas crafts, or for
diffusing in your home during the season. You can make replacements to suit your needs, or if

Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets (For When You Want to Scream into a Pillow)

Free Printable Downloads for Women 40+ Navigating the Hormonal Rollercoaster

Let’s be real—there are days when being a woman over 40 feels like riding a hormone-fueled tilt-a-whirl without the safety bar. Welcome to perimenopause, my friends. If you’ve ever found yourself sweating while standing in front of the fridge, crying over a puppy food commercial, or forgetting why you walked into a room (again), you’re in good company.

That’s exactly why I created these Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets—printable pages made especially for those “I swear if someone breathes near me I’m going to scream” moments.

What Are Calm Down Sheets?

These aren’t your typical mandala coloring pages. Nope. These were lovingly illustrated with women in perimenopause and menopause in mind—think messy buns, mood swings, and a whole lot of caffeine. Each sheet includes relatable cartoons, cheeky quotes, and stress-relieving doodles that are way more satisfying to color than pretending you’re fine.

They’re perfect for:

Rage coloring during a hot flash

Cooling down after snapping at your partner for chewing too loudly

Unwinding with a glass of wine and a pack of colored pencils

Quiet moments when your brain fog lifts just enough to enjoy something creative

Why Coloring Helps During Perimenopause

There’s science behind this, promise. Coloring helps lower cortisol levels, focus your mind, and gently ease anxious thoughts. It’s like a mindfulness practice, but one that doesn’t require Lycra or a meditation app subscription. And let’s be honest—when the world feels a bit much, giving a snarky mug or frazzled cartoon woman a splash of lavender and hot pink is downright cathartic.
