A Festive Freebie (Wrapped in Lights and Cuteness)

Well, this isn’t exactly the blog post I planned to write today.

But sometimes, you make a cozy cup of tea, sit down to work on something lovely, and instead… find yourself designing a dachshund in a Christmas sweater tangled in twinkle lights. Wearing antlers.

Naturally.

And once I saw him? That was it. I knew I had to share.

Meet Your New Holiday Sidekick

He’s festive. He’s floppy. He looks excited for the holidays already — which, if we’re honest, makes him even more relatable (at least for those of us who wish Christmas was year round).

I’m offering this pup as a free PNG, ready for your creative holiday projects. He comes with a transparent background and enough personality to charm your Christmas cards, planner spreads, or gift tags. Maybe even your phone background, if you're the type who likes your lock screen to smile back at you.

A Little Reminder for the Season

December (I know it's August) has a way of getting heavy. Not always in big, dramatic ways… but in little ones. Full calendars. Long to-do lists. The expectation to feel merry, even when we’re just plain tired.

And maybe that’s why this silly, sparkly pup felt worth sharing.
He made me smile. That was enough.

So if you’re looking for something light-hearted to add to your holiday making, he’s here — no strings, no fuss.

Just joy in PNG form.

Stay wild, stay whimsical,
