In this tutorial I will show you how to create relatively secure paper wallets for Christmas with a Christmas theme.

1. Prepare the code

Start by downloading the bitaddress.org wallet generator and modify it to make it look more like Christmas. Alternatively less secure you can download my fork of the project to get the full code immediately.

a. Download the Bitcoin santa image here and place it into the src directory

b. Open bitaddress.html with the text editor of your choice

c. Change the following lines:

.keyarea { height: 221px; text-align: left; position: relative; padding: 5px; }

.keyarea .privwif { margin: 0; float: right; text-align: right; padding: 100px 20px 0px 0; position: relative; }

<span><label id=”paperlabelhideart” for=”paperart”>Christmas edition</label> <input type=”checkbox” id=”paperart” onchange=”ninja.wallets.paperwallet.toggleArt(this);” /></span>

.keyarea .qrcode_private { display: inline-block; position: relative; top: 130px; float: right; }

pageBreakAtDefault: 3,

d. Add the following lines:

.keyarea .christmas { height: 150px; width:150px; position:absolute;left:0px; top:70px; }

“<img src=’./src/crypto-santa.png’ class=’christmas’>” +

2. Move to a secure environment (optional)

I suggest moving the code to a secure environment (bootable linux, linux vm) or similar.

3. Create the paper wallets

Open bitaddress.org.html in your browser and follow the instructions.

Select “Christmas edition” and click “Generate”.

4. Print them out

Print out your Paper wallets but be cautious as it may leave traces on the printer. Best to use a printer in your possession that is not connected to the internet.

5. Send some Bitcoins

Use the public keys to send some Bitcoins or Bitcoin Cash.

6. Customize

Write your wishes and Bitcoin ammounts on the white space.

Cheers!
