Details

Bring the charm of a snowy mountain lodge home with the Ski Lodge Gondola Door Hanger DIY Kit. Its cheerful cable-car silhouette brings together layered window frames, crossed skis, a wreath and Merry Christmas lettering for a winter welcome full of character.

Make it your own with classic Christmas red, soft winter neutrals or a palette that fits your home. Painting the individual pieces before assembly makes the little details a pleasure to finish, while the layered construction gives your completed gondola depth and personality. Choose the smaller version for a cozy interior accent or the larger birch version for a more prominent seasonal display.

This is a physical, unfinished and unassembled DIY kit, not a finished painted decoration or a digital file. Painted photographs show color and styling inspiration only.

What’s Included

• One gondola door hanger in your selected size, with its main backer and decorative laser-cut layering pieces.
• Cabin and window details, skis, wreath and wooden bow detail, snow accents, Merry Christmas lettering and lower skid elements shown in the unfinished kit photograph.
• Hanging holes in the design for your own ribbon or cord.

What’s Not Included

Paint, brushes, glue, sealer, hanging ribbon or cord, the large decorative fabric bow, greenery, bells, hanging hardware and photography props are not included. The wooden wreath bow detail is part of the cut design; the large fabric bow shown in the painted photographs is styling only.

Materials and Sizes

• Small: premium 1/8-inch MDF; main backer approximately 11.56 inches high × 9.70 inches wide. $24.99.
• Large: premium 1/4-inch birch plywood; main backer approximately 18.01 inches high × 15.11 inches wide. $39.99.

Measurements are approximate at the original design scale and refer to the main backer, excluding hanging cord, fabric bow and greenery. Each purchase includes one kit in the selected size, not both sizes. Laser-cut edges may show natural darkening; birch grain and wood tone may vary.

How to Use

1. Lay out the unfinished pieces and dry-fit the layers before painting.
2. Lightly smooth any edges that need attention and remove sanding dust.
3. Paint the pieces separately in your chosen colors and allow them to dry fully.
4. Assemble the layers with adhesive suitable for your selected material, keeping the hanging holes clear.
5. Allow the adhesive to cure. Add a compatible sealer if desired, then supply your own ribbon or cord for hanging.
6. Display on an interior door or wall, away from moisture and direct weather.
