Our Advent Calendar

Hey there everyone! Hopefully everyones day is going well. It's really starting to feel like the holidays today. It's rainy and very cold here in Monterey today. It's really time to get into gear with our holiday crafting. I finished one project today. What can you make with....



Bottles of $1.00 value glitter glue.......



...a bundle of bamboo sticks.....



...and a bunch of $.79 felt stockings?

Well, you make an advent calendar! Here's my finished project.




I can't wait until December 1st comes around and the girls get to start to find goodies in those little stockings.

I'm working on a countdown calendar for work using the Cricut. I'll post pictures of at project when it's done tonight. The girls are currently helping me make a hand wreath for Thanksgiving. So hopefully we'll have that done by tonight too. Especially since Thanksgiving is in a couple of days and our friends will be in town tomorrow. Not to mention that I still need to clean up all of my craft stuff off of the dining table. I know, i should have all of at stuff in the craft room but it's so much better to craft when I have my family around me rather than in solitude. Well, back to crafting and I hope your day is wonderful.

Until next time, happy crafting!

  1. Really neat idea varying the lengths of the ribbon and using bamboo to hang the stockings. I see your blog background is festive as well!
