Let’s Get Started!
1. Gather Your Supplies:
- Paper: Use plain white paper or graph paper. Graph paper is especially helpful for pixel art because it has a grid of squares.

- Christmas Characters: Try drawing Santa Claus, reindeer, elves, or even a Christmas tree!
- Festive Patterns: Create patterns with snowflakes, candy canes, or Christmas lights.
3. Draw the Outline:
- Grid Paper: If you’re using graph paper, draw your outline by coloring in the squares. Each square represents one pixel.

4. Fill in the Pixels:
