Home for Christmas Truck SVG

About this design

Nothing says Christmas like coming home. A vintage pickup brings its tree back to the house, and Home for Christmas sits beneath it in a round, friendly script.

It is a warm design for families coming together, new homes and anyone traveling for the holidays.

Cutting and weeding

This one has 14 pieces and 12 cut-outs, most of them the closed loops of the round script. The words come in separate pieces, and the pickup has openings for its window, door and tailgate. Move everything together with one sheet of transfer tape. The design is cutting-ready from about 9 inches wide, a little larger than the Merry Christmas Truck needs.

Colors

• Charcoal base: the whole design, which forms the tires and the narrow outlines
• Red truck on top of the base
• Green tree in the truck bed
• Gold for the tree’s star and the headlight
• Red script for Home for Christmas

Projects

• Entryway signs.
• Pillows.
• Sweatshirts.

• Banners.

Step by step: an entryway sign

1. Choose a 16-inch width and download the color file.
2. Cut each color from adhesive vinyl.
3. Lay the charcoal down on a painted board, then build the other colors over it.
4. Brush on a clear sealer once the vinyl is down.
5. Hang it in the hall, where guests see it as they walk in.

Why 9 inches

The loops of the round script close up if the design gets too small, so it needs about 9 inches. That size is right for signs, pillows and adult shirts, but too big for a child’s shirt or a mug.

A gift for someone coming home

This makes a thoughtful present for a student back from college, a family that moved over the year or someone returning after a long time away. Add the year under the greeting, or the name of the town, and it becomes a keepsake that comes out every December.

Weeding the round script

With 12 small openings in the letters, use a fine hook and a bright lamp. Keep the greeting and the truck on the same transfer sheet so the baseline stays straight. On a pillow cover, center the words and let the pickup sit above them. You can change any of the 5 colors in the editor on this page before downloading.

Pairs well with

The Merry Christmas Truck has another greeting, and the From Our Home to Yours Seal suits the same theme.
