Home made advent calendar |
I have been counting down the days until I can blare my Christmas music and get my glitter out. On a cold winter weekend, I am rarely happier than when I am indoors making things and this one was no different. Just in time for 1.12.12 I got a little bit carried away and made an advent calendar.
Nice pictures, chocolates and currency from a holiday. |
A surpirse a day. This is the fun part. It takes a fair bit of planning and you can tailor it to the person as much as you like. I made this one for my boyfriend and it included three coffees from his favourite coffee shop and a Christmas lottery ticket.
Here's what you'll need to make your own...
A notice board
24 pegs
24 gold pins
Spray paint
Glue gun/super glue
24 envelopes
Stickers (optional)
24 surprises inc. Chocolates
Christmassy sequins
1. Spray the pegs with spray paint and leave to dry |
2. Stamp or write all the numbers on the envelopes |
3. Put all the surprises in the envelopes and seal with
Christmassy Stickers. You can pop a few Christmas
and starry sequins in too if you have some.
|
4. Spay the other side of the pegs
5. When the pegs are dry, glue the pins to the pegs
6. Stick the envelopes to the board.
