Yes- It’s almost time:) Can you believe it? One of our family’s favorite traditions is advent calendars. While my kids love the inexpensive boxed ones you buy at the grocery store (we do those too), I love creating a more personal one for our family. In the bags, I stick favorite candies, stickers, school supplies and most important- coupons!
The coupons promise trips to the ice cream store, family movie night, dinner out, anything I can think of to make the season a bit more magical. The kids work out a schedule deciding who opens the bag on which day. It’s fun watching them work together to unveil their treat.
You need-
24 bags ( bags like mine in small red or green available here, in medium red or green found here)
Labels are available for free download by clicking here. Simply print on full label sheets
ribbon/twine
Attach the label to the bag. Fill the bag with a treat, hang from your ribbon. Tie the ribbon to your fireplace, across a bulletin/chalkboard, even to a wall. The possibilities are endless.
Hope you’re enjoying some amazing fall weather. ENDLESS gratitude to the amazing Veterans who have served our country!
Off to a great week!
XO,
Jenny

Hi, I am a new follower of you on Pinterest and email. Your advent calendar is so simple and cute. I really want to make one this year for my little boy. Please send your file of the numbers. What size labels do I print them on? Do u have any idea how I can transfer the numbers to fabric? I’m thinking of making little stockings.
Thanks!!
