What is a VIP Pass?
The 2025 VIP Pass gives you easy access to the step-by-step assembly videos for Merry Maker Mingle 2025 (this year it starts November 14, 2025), as well as replay videos of all our live broadcast videos. In addition, you get a printable Quickstart Guide with easy supply lists for each of our workshops and a beautiful and festive holiday planner, which is an exclusive benefit of the VIP Pass, as well as access to an exclusive Holiday Crafting Companion video with me to get you in the holiday spirit. Additional bonuses include an ad-free experience for all Merry Maker Mingle 2025 content and a 50% bonus coupon good for my ebooks, workshops, and courses until Christmas 2025, plus extra goodies along the way that will be exclusive to VIP passholders.
The Merry Maker Mingle VIP Pass is BRAND NEW this year and filled with all-new bonuses, experiences, and surprises you’ve never seen from us before! The VIP Pass content is fully searchable within an easy-access dashboard for an even more enjoyable experience! You can see every project at a glance, skip-the-zip to download just what you need (or download everything at once), and get a smoother experience altogether!
Wait, isn't this free? Why would I need to purchase the VIP Pass?
Yes, Merry Maker Mingle is free! The Merry Maker Mingle VIP Pass is optional and gives you easier access and exclusive bonus content. The free pass gets you daily emails with links to each day's project post on our blog on the day it is released, as well as links to the video, file, instructions, and any live chats we do, while the VIP pass gives you early and ad-free access to our Merry Maker dashboard with searchable libraries and easier downloading. Plus, the 2025 VIP All Access Pass gives you downloadable access to all videos, including assembly videos and live event replays — watch anytime, anywhere, as many times as you’d like! Plus, a 50% discount for any JenniferMaker course, workshop, or event (good until Christmas 2025).
I am an ADVANCE program member. How is the VIP Pass different from that program?
As an ADVANCE member, you get early access to the projects as a perk of your membership as well as an ad-free experience! But, the additional bonuses of the Merry Maker Mingle 2025 VIP Pass are exclusive to the pass and are not included in your membership. If you purchase a 2025 VIP Pass, you get access to the Merry Maker Mingle dashboard, the Quickstart guide, and the companion video! And you can use your 25% member discount on the VIP Pass to save! The 25% member discount code is located in your member dashboard under "Links."
What’s the difference between the Free Pass and the VIP Pass?
The Free Pass gives you access to each Merry Maker project as it’s released, one day at a time. The Merry Maker Mingle VIP Pass gives you easier access to the 25 projects earlier so you can start right away, the exclusive Holiday Crafting Companion video, our Merry Maker Quick Start Guide, and special VIP-only bonuses—all in one beautifully organized space on the dashboard. It’s the most joyful way to craft, connect, and celebrate this holiday season!
What’s included in the VIP Pass?
As a VIP, you’ll enjoy:
✨ Easier and earlier access to every project as it’s released
🎄 Printable shopping lists and step-by-step tutorials
🎥 A special companion video made to get you in the holiday spirit
💫 Bonus Quick Start Guide with a holiday planner included
🎁 Ad-free experience for all 25 projects and bonus content
💖 A stress-free, self-paced crafting experience
Do I still get the free projects if I don’t upgrade?
Yes! Every Merry Maker will still get access to the daily free projects. But the VIP Pass gives you more freedom, flexibility, and bonuses to make this season’s crafting truly magical.
I signed up for your event last year — is this the same?
No, Merry Maker Mingle 2025 is an ALL-new event with totally new workshops, designs, giveaways, and fun.
I'm interested in the VIP Pass, but I'm afraid I won't use it. How do I know it's for me?
I get it — you want to make amazing things, but you’re not sure if you have time. The VIP Pass is for you if you want to make things this season, but you also know that life gets busy. You don’t have to do every project, or even do them right away — that’s exactly what the VIP Pass is for. It lets you enjoy the Mingle at your own pace. It’s also for you if you crave a little creative calm — something that helps you slow down, breathe, and reconnect with the joy of making. The on-demand Merry Maker Companion Video — a cozy, three-hour holiday experience we can share together — make it feel special and personal. So if you love the idea of creating, even if you’re not sure how much time you’ll have, the VIP Pass was made with you in mind. It’s there to make the holidays easier, more creative, and more meaningful — not another thing on your to-do list.
And while we're confident that the VIP Pass is well worth the investment, if you dive into the classes and aren’t completely satisfied, you're covered with my 30-day Happiness Guarantee! Just reach out to our Maker Experience team and request a full refund within 30 days of your purchase.
There are always SO MANY amazing projects! How will I ever watch them all?
You probably won't, and you don't need to either! We have so many workshops so there's something for everyone at Merry Maker Mingle! Start with a few and go from there.
Is this a one-time payment or recurring fee?
This is a simple one-time payment.
Is all past and future Merry Maker Mingle content included?
No, the 2025 VIP Pass is for 2025 only.
I am a student in another course or workshop you offer. Is the VIP Pass included free in that?
No, Merry Maker Mingle 2025 is all-new content. The 2025 VIP Pass is not included in any of my other courses. If you are member of my ADVANCE program, however, you can save 25% off the purchase of a VIP Pass (check your member dashboard under "Links" for your discount code).
Am I able to make and sell these projects?
Yes. Our Merry Maker Mingle 2025 designs come with a Community License, which allows you to sell as many as five physical products of any single design. If you need more than five, please become an ADVANCE member, which comes with our Small Business Commercial License. Read more about our license options here.
Does the VIP Pass include supplies for each project?
No, those you get on your own as needed for the projects that interest you.
When will I get access to the VIP content?
Immediately after checkout! You’ll receive an email with your VIP access link and login instructions, so you can start exploring your projects right away.
How long do I have access to the VIP dashboard?
You’ll have lifetime access, so you can revisit every project anytime — whether you craft now, next month, or next Christmas!
Can I upgrade later?
Yes, but this special early VIP offer is only available on this page and for a limited time. Once you leave this page, the price may increase — so it’s best to grab your VIP pass now.
Do you have any discounts?
Yes, the VIP Pass is currently at it's lowest price — the cost goes up as we go along. Also, if you're an ADVANCE member (or become one), you save 25% off the cost of the VIP Pass!
Can I gift a VIP Pass to someone else?
Absolutely! The VIP Pass makes a perfect gift for a crafty friend. Just purchase the pass, then contact us to transfer access to their email.
Is this worth it if I’m not an experienced crafter?
Absolutely! Every Merry Maker VIP project includes step-by-step video tutorials and printable photo guides, so you can follow along at your own pace — no experience needed. You’ll learn new techniques, gain confidence, and create projects you’re proud to share.
Can I make your projects even if I don't have a cutting machine, sublimation printer, or sewing machine?
Yes! My 2025 MERRY MAKER projects pretty much always come with a printable PDF you can use to make things by hand, and printable projects are always possible by ordering a sublimation or DTF print (no need for a printer then). I also have projects that don't require a machine at all!
I signed up, but I'm not getting your emails. Can you help?
I send emails to those on my Gift List as well as our 2025 VIP passholders. If you aren't receiving them, check your Promotions, spam, or junk folder. If that doesn't help, you can contact us at hello@jennifermaker.com and we'll check to be sure your email address is receiving them, and if not, help you get back on track.
I love everything about this and I want to tell others. How do I share it?
Just tell your friends to go to jennifermaker.com/merrymakervip and they'll see this page to sign up, too!
I have another question. Can you help?
Of course! Please send an email to vip@jennifermaker.com and we'll do our best to assist!
