Cover maker preset
Christmas Facebook covers
Christmas is the one time of year when nearly everyone changes their cover. It goes up in late November or early December and comes down after New Year, and in between, friends and family visit profiles more than usual. This preset is built for that short season: twinkling lights, stars, ribbons and wrapped gifts in classic red, green, gold and snowy palettes.
The bokeh style is the star here. In the deep red or midnight blue palettes it looks like a Christmas tree's lights seen out of focus, with soft glowing stars on top. Confetti scatters gifts, stars and ribbons across the cover like wrapping paper. The paper style makes snowy cut-paper hills under falling stars, which suits a quieter, homemade look. Abril Fatface gives the greeting the feel of a printed card.
Five palettes are included: candy red with gold, pine green with red, midnight blue with gold and ice, a white snowy palette with red and green, and a warm fireplace brown with amber light. All of them look fine with white or gold text.
For birthdays, New Year and other parties, see the wider holidays & celebrations preset.

Tips for christmas covers
Wrapping paper in one click
Choose confetti, set the density high and press "Shuffle pattern" until the gifts and stars fall nicely around the text. With the snowy white palette it looks like printed wrapping paper.
Twinkle lights behind a name
A family cover with "The Garcias" in the main line and "Merry Christmas 2026" underneath, on the bokeh style, makes a simple card everyone sees. Keep the name in the center so the phone crop doesn't cut it.
Think about the dates
If you want one cover for the whole season, write "Happy holidays" or "Home for the holidays" so it still fits after Christmas Day. A cover that says "Merry Christmas" on January 10 looks forgotten.
Business hours over the holidays
Shops and restaurants should put their holiday hours in the small line: "Closed Dec 24-26. Merry Christmas!" Update the hours on the Page as well, because that's what search and maps show.
Gold text for warmth
Gold or cream text on dark red or green feels warmer than pure white. Use the color pickers to set the third slot to gold and the maker will pick it for the stars too.
Change back in January
Set a reminder to swap the cover after New Year. The holidays preset has navy and gold palettes for a quick New Year cover.
