Is there a better time to show you the advent calendar that I made for my son this year than after we are already half way through it? No, right? So here it is.

I used a mix of brown paper bags and gold and white striped bags from Target to hold the gifts and activity cards. For the numbers, I used scalloped tags from Staples, my Making Memories foam number stamps, a Christmas mistletoe stamp and a bit of washi tape.

I folded over all the bags and punched a whole, then threaded through some white ribbon so that the bags could hang from a piece of string on our banister.

I put a pine garland over top of the packages to make it a bit more Christmassy.
