Step 1: Gather Your Supplies
Set out the contents of your OOLY Peanuts Color-In Wooden Scene Kit (8 precut wood pieces with Peanuts character art, base to stage and display your scene, 12 water-based acrylic paint markers for coloring and personalizing & step-by-step instruction sheet).

Step 3: Color the Holiday Sweaters
Color each Peanuts holiday sweater on the printable using the OOLY x Peanuts Double-Ended Brush & Stamp Markers. Use the brush tip to fill in each design with bright, cheerful colors that match your favorite holiday styles. Mix and match shades to make each sweater unique — from classic reds and greens to fun pops of pink, blue, and yellow!
Step 4: Cut Out the Holiday Sweaters
Carefully cut out each cute holiday sweater (parent supervision advised).

Step 5: Deck Out the Characters
Attach each colored costume to its matching wooden character using double-sided tape or poster putty.

Step 6: Create a Fun Holiday Backdrop
Color in the Happy Holidays backdrop printable using the OOLY x Peanuts Double-Ended Brush & Stamp Markers. Use the brush tip to fill in the lettering and background elements, adding bright, cheerful colors that make your scene pop. It’s a fun and easy way to complete your Peanuts holiday display with color and creativity!

Step 7: Assemble Your OOLY x Peanuts Holiday Scene
Place your holiday-ready Peanuts characters into the wooden base from the kit with your festive backdrop placed behind it. Arrange the OOLY x Peanuts crew so they’re ready for a joyful holiday sing-along or festive party scene!

Alternate Ending: Add 3D Pop to the Holiday Sweaters
Take your Peanuts holiday scene to the next level by adding festive texture and dimension! Use OOLY Dot-A-Lot 3D Dimensional Craft Paint to outline sweater details, add colorful buttons, or create fun patterns like polka dots and zigzags. The raised paint dries with a smooth, glossy finish that makes each sweater stand out with extra cheer.
With the OOLY x Peanuts Color-In Wooden Scene Kit, every moment of creativity becomes a memory. This DIY Peanuts holiday scene is a fun, hands-on activity for kids and families to enjoy together — the perfect way to celebrate the season with color, imagination, and joy.
