Handmade Advent Calendar




This is Sam's advent calendar. Not very well designed. The fabric pockets (sewn with fabric sraps and old clothes) are a little too big for the tree. But not bad for a first attempt! We made handmade chocolates wrapped in tin foil. I think I'm going to experiment with handmade chocolates - they were so easy and quick. Plus, we want to make something other than biscuits with icing!

  3. We have these too, but not homemade. Yours are just lovely, and an inspiration for me.

    Have a great weekend Andrea!
