advent calendar - part i





It's all Belinda's fault. That's my colleague and friend Belinda Graham from real living, renovate + decorate and mini meez. But Lisa Tilse has to shoulder her share of the blame, too. They both got me obsessing about advent calendars after this post here. So now I'm looking high and low for a great one. Of course, first port of call was Etsy where I found this incredibly cute version at GongyAndSquish. I guess it would be easy to make a similar one from Ikea storage boxes. But it's mid November - I don't have time!

It's a good one. I'm in the process of making one from recycled office paper. It will be a project for my Girl Guide unit to make on Thursday. Pretty happy with my efforts thus far. Will post later in the week when it's all done.

Gorgeous - I usually make my own too but it never looks as glamorous as this!

This is a beautiful one! And what cute kids. :)

Ah, Katie. I will have to check that out. Recycled office paper sounds intriguing.

Kendalee, it's still a pretty impressive effort to make one. I can't wait for my little one to be old enough to help making them, too.

Laurie, the kids are cute - but whose kids aren't!!! :-)
