25 Things You Can Make with Thanksgiving SVGs
Thanksgiving is a great time to get creative with your Cricut or Silhouette machine. If you’re hosting dinner, heading to a Friendsgiving party, or just enjoy making things for the holidays, there are plenty of ways to put Thanksgiving SVGs to use.
You can use SVG files to make custom shirts, decorate your home, personalize gifts, and add a few fun details to your Thanksgiving table. All you need is a design you like, the right materials, and a little time to put it together.
Here are 25 Thanksgiving SVG project ideas to try this year!
1. Thanksgiving Shirts
Make a Thanksgiving shirt for yourself or create matching shirts for the whole family. A funny Thanksgiving saying, a cute turkey, or a handlettered design looks great on a plain T-shirt. Use heat transfer vinyl to add your design, and you’ll have something fun to wear for dinner, family photos, or your annual turkey trot.
2. Personalized Wine Glasses
Hosting Friendsgiving or having family over for dinner? Add names, Thanksgiving phrases, or simple seasonal designs to wine glasses using permanent adhesive vinyl. You can make a matching set or give everyone a glass with their name on it.
3. Seasonal Sweatshirts
Create cozy Thanksgiving sweatshirts featuring pumpkins, fall leaves, turkeys, or seasonal sayings. They’re great for family gatherings, Friendsgiving, or a little festive outfit for the holiday.
4. Thanksgiving Mugs
Decorate plain mugs with Thanksgiving designs, seasonal lettering, or a funny phrase about everyone’s favorite part of the meal. You can make a set for your family or personalize a mug as a little gift for your host. Just be sure to use an appropriate decoration method and follow the care instructions for your mug.
5. Thanksgiving Signs
Make a sign for your entryway, dining room, or kitchen with a Thanksgiving greeting or festive design. A simple wooden sign with handlettered text looks right at home with your holiday decorations. You can also create a smaller sign for your buffet or dessert table.
6. Cute Tumblers
Add Thanksgiving-themed graphics or lettering to tumblers for seasonal drinkware. They’re fun for hosting, gifting, or creating matching drinkware for family and friends.
7. Thanksgiving Tote Bags
Create reusable tote bags for carrying groceries, bringing dishes to dinner, or packing up Thanksgiving leftovers. Add a seasonal phrase or festive design with heat transfer vinyl. Personalized totes also make useful gifts for friends and family who enjoy a little holiday crafting.
8. Pie Boxes and Treat Packaging
Sending guests home with pie or homemade treats? Decorate paper boxes with Thanksgiving SVGs, cardstock cutouts, or custom labels. A simple turkey, a pumpkin pie design, or a festive phrase makes your packaging feel special without requiring a complicated project.
9. Thanksgiving Kitchen Towels
Add a little holiday personality to your kitchen with custom tea towels. Thanksgiving phrases, turkey designs, and playful food-related sayings all work well for this project. Make a set for your own kitchen or create a few to give as hostess gifts.
10. Personalized Serving Trays
Decorate a serving tray with a Thanksgiving design or a family name. It’s a fun way to dress up a tray you’ll use for appetizers, drinks, or desserts during the holidays. Choose a decoration method suited to the tray’s surface and keep decorative materials away from food-contact areas.
11. Seasonal Phone Cases
Give phone cases a seasonal update with Thanksgiving SVG designs. Try fall florals, pumpkins, leaves, or a cute Thanksgiving graphic for a little holiday personality.
12. A Thanksgiving Welcome Sign
Give family and friends a warm welcome with a sign for your front porch or entryway. A Thanksgiving greeting paired with simple seasonal artwork makes an easy addition to your holiday decorations. If the sign will be outdoors, choose materials that can handle the weather.
13. Custom Aprons
Make a personalized apron for the person who spends Thanksgiving in the kitchen. Add a name, a funny cooking phrase, or a festive design using heat transfer vinyl. You could even make matching aprons for everyone helping with the holiday meal.
14. Leftover Container Labels
Thanksgiving leftovers are practically a holiday tradition of their own. Make personalized labels or tags for containers so everyone knows what’s inside and whose food is whose. They’re especially handy when guests are taking home a little bit of everything.
15. Thanksgiving Greeting Cards
Make your own Thanksgiving cards with layered cardstock, decorative lettering, and seasonal SVG designs. They’re a nice way to send a thank-you to someone special or let family and friends know you’re thinking of them. You can even make coordinating envelopes with matching cutout details.
16. Seasonal Oven Mitts and Pot Holders
Personalize pot holders and oven mitts with fall sayings, Thanksgiving graphics, or a family name. These also make thoughtful little gifts for anyone who loves spending time in the kitchen.
17. Seasonal Doormats
Welcome guests with a festive doormat featuring a Thanksgiving phrase, fall graphics, or a combination of both. It’s an easy way to add a seasonal touch to your front porch before everyone arrives.
18. Bottle Gift Bags
Bringing a bottle of wine, sparkling cider, or another favorite drink to your host? Personalize a gift bag with a Thanksgiving phrase or seasonal design. It’s a simple way to make your gift feel a little more thoughtful.
19. Thanksgiving Banners
Make a banner for your mantel, dining room, or buffet table. Cut individual letters and decorative shapes from cardstock, then string them together with ribbon or twine. You can spell out a Thanksgiving greeting or create a shorter banner to coordinate with the rest of your decorations.
20. Personalized Cutting Boards
A custom cutting board makes a thoughtful gift for someone who loves to cook. Depending on the board’s intended use, you can add a name or design to the handle or another decorative area away from the cutting surface. Keep vinyl and other decorative materials off the areas used to prepare food.
21. Thanksgiving Coasters
Make a set of coasters with turkey designs, seasonal lettering, or simple Thanksgiving graphics. Add family names for a personalized set or create coordinating designs for your holiday table. Choose materials and finishes that are suitable for drinks and easy to care for.
