The holidays are a magical time full of crisp mornings, cozy firesides, festive gatherings, and an extra dose of cocoa and cheer. But between planning parties, navigating gift lists, and braving chilly winds, they can also be a whirlwind.
At The Landmark Project, we believe the holidays are best enjoyed with intention: good music, great drinks, creative escapes, and playful traditions. So here’s your Holiday Survival Guide, full of things we love to make this season feel warm, joyful, and just a little adventurous.
Nothing sets the mood like the perfect soundtrack. Whether you’re bundled up by the fire, driving through snow-dusted landscapes, or wrapping gifts with a cup of coffee, our Music for a Cold Front playlist brings the perfect blend of wintery warmth and upbeat cheer.
What you’ll hear:
Warm acoustic folk that feels like a cabin in the woods
Laid-back indie tracks perfect for snowy mornings and quiet evenings
Instrumental and mellow songs made for slow moments and creative projects
Upbeat winter tunes that bring energy without breaking the cozy mood
A soundtrack that pairs perfectly with cold weather, good company, and fireside hangs
Press play, let the sound fill your space, and let this playlist score your favorite moments of the season.
When the air turns frosty and friends gather ’round, warm up with our favorite seasonal cocktail: The Smoky Mule.
This isn’t your average winter drink — it’s bold, cozy, and unforgettable.
Ingredients:
Whiskey
Orange Beer
Lemon Juice
Maple Syrup
Ice Cubes
Garnish with a roasted marshmallow
How to Make It:
Pour whiskey into a chilled mug over ice.
Add a splash of fresh lemon juice.
Sweeten with just the right amount of maple syrup.
Top with orange beer and stir gently.
Crown the drink with a roasted marshmallow garnish that melts into sweet nostalgia.
The result? A cocktail that’s smoky, citrusy, sweet, and playful that's perfect for holiday parties, fireside chats, or cozy nights in.
Cheers to warmth in every sip!
Holiday stress? Put down the to-do list and pick up some crayons.
This season, we’re inspired by the wild, awe-inspiring beauty of our national parks. That’s why we’re sharing National Parks-inspired coloring pages. Decompress and celebrate the great outdoors from the comfort of home.
Whether it’s evergreen forests, winding trails, or snow-dust peaks, these pages let you:
Disconnect from screens
Enjoy playful coloring
Explore nature through art
Share the joy with kids, friends, or fellow park lovers
Print them, color them, gift them, or hang them up as holiday art. Creativity is one of the best ways to recharge in a season that moves fast.
A holiday tradition with a The Landmark Project twist!
We’re obsessed with A-Frame cabins — cozy peaks, nestled in the woods, evoking both adventure and comfort. So naturally, we turned that love into a gingerbread version you can build at home.

Families
Friends
Cozy holiday nights
Anyone who loves a little rustic whimsy
Print, assemble, decorate with icing and candy, and make it uniquely yours.
