Crafty Critterz: Holiday Advent Calendar

Submitted by: Lun with Marigold

 

 

 

 

 


What you need:

  • Large piece of fabric, cardboard or Bristol board
  • Construction paper
  • Scissors
  • Glue or tape
  • Small gifts
  • Crayons, markers, stickers

 

What you do:

1.     Take a large piece of fabric, cardboard or Bristol board.

2.     Cut out 25-31 square pieces of fabric or construction paper.

3.     Begin attaching the pockets to the Bristol board.  You will want to place glue or tape on the bottom, and two sides of paper.  Leave the tip of the pocket open so you can place gifts inside.

4.     Decorate the Bristol board by coloring, painting or putting stickers on the calendar.

5.     Once all the pockets are attached with glue, you can begin placing gifts in the pockets.  Great ideas to place in the pockets include Webkinz figurines, trading card packets, and tags to Webkinz. (The Webkinz plush can be given once the tag is discovered for extra fun!)

Create your advent calendar for any amount of days and for any month of the year!

Do you have a great idea for a craft, recipe or party game? We’d love to hear them!

    Christmas is so awesome!! This month is so fun! I’d make that advent calender, but I already have one. If they wanted people to make it, they should have posted it around Thanksgiving. Like right after maybe.

    Jitterbug~ I named my reindeer Nudge! (Weird name, I know…) I thought about your ideas and I did love them a lot, but I like the name Nudge because she was my favorite person in a book ;) LemonCandy that sounds really cool, I wish I could see them!
