A lovely windy and wet day here so I thought I'd brighten things up a bit, I have been looking for inspiration for this year's Advent Calendar, here are a few I found whilst browsing the web :
A lovely colourful display with a novel way to reuse cardbourd tubes! |
Original idea, perfect project for children with basic sewing skills to enjoy creating. |
These colourful parcels can be strung together and hung decoratively across a room or attached individually to the Christmas tree. |
Colourful and simple |
Traditional boxes, lovely for little hands and small people learning to count. |
My children like the idea of this one, not sure about all that icing myself.. |
This one reminds me a little of pass the parcel - very exciting ripping off the layers of paper. I have done something similar at home the last few years using lots of different coloured wrap. |
Another lovely idea the children can work on themselves, a good one for boys - a way to re-use match or raisin boxes |
A very decorative idea, the envelopes can hold little notes suggesting an activity or treat for that day |
A very sweet idea for tiny ones - could use any template. |
Very festive, also seves as a wall hanging for the festive period. |
Cute little birds that the children can design and make themselves. |
I like this idea, it would work well as a magnetic design.. |
Nice way of displaying a vintage leather suitcase. |
simple and effective. |
A lovely way to use vintage fabric or re-use old table cloths etc in a pretty design. |
