Step by Step Christmas Chimney Drawing Instructions
Step 1 – Draw the Snowy Top
Start with a wide rectangle at the top with a wavy bottom edge. This will be the snowy top of your chimney.
Step 2 – Draw the Snowy Base
Under the snow top, draw a big, rounded rectangle for the chimney base. It should curve gently and feel soft like snow.
Step 3 – Add the Chimney Walls
Now connect the top and base by drawing two straight lines down from the snow top to the base—this creates the brick chimney body.
Step 4 – Draw the First Row of Bricks
Start filling the chimney with small, rounded rectangles to make it look like bricks. Begin with a row near the top.
Step 5 – Fill In More Bricks
Add more rows of bricks all the way down to the bottom. Stagger the bricks a little to make them look like real masonry.
Step 6 – Add a Face and Color It In!
Draw two little eyes and a smile in the snow cap if you’d like to make it cute! Then color in the bricks red or brown, and the snow white with light blue shadows.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can I draw Santa in the chimney too?
Yes! Try sketching Santa’s hat or boots popping out from the snowy top for extra fun.
What colors work best for the bricks?
Red, orange, or brown bricks are classic—but don’t be afraid to try creative colors like pink or blue!

Use white with light blue or gray shadows along the edges to give your snow a fluffy, wintery feel.
