The Best DIY Christmas Advent Calendar Styles
Here are a few fun DIY style ideas to bring the advent calendar tradition alive in your own home this Christian holiday season!
It’s that time of year again! On December 1st my daughter ran to grab her little advent calendar from its place perched in the living room and nearly jumped to the roof with excitement to open her first little drawer.
I remember very clearly, the advent calendar my mother had for me as a child — it was made of felt and had numbered pockets. Each day I’d move the little mouse marker to the correct spot and claim my treat inside. I LOVED when there were little Santa chocolates to nibble on — even first thing in the morning, she’d let me have my tiny treat. Such fond memories of watching the countdown til Christmas. I loved that first tangible sign of the season!
What is an Advent Calendar?
An Advent Calendar is like a festive countdown that makes waiting for Christmas extra fun! Imagine a special calendar with little doors hiding surprises—each day, you get to open one and discover a tiny treasure, whether it’s a chocolate, a small toy, or even a sweet message. It’s like a holiday tradition unwrapped, bringing joy and excitement as you build up to the big day. Great for kids and anyone who loves a daily dose of Christmas fun, an Advent Calendar turns each day into a little party, making December a month full of merry moments!
