Make Your Own Christmas Advent Calendar

November 27, 2009 By Michelle Barneck 6 Comments

It is almost that time! That time to start counting down the days to my absolute favorite day of the year! I am so excited to make a Christmas advent calendar, but there are so many adorable options! How will I ever choose which fantastic advent calendar I want to hang on my wall? Well, today for Feature Friday, I will be featuring some of my favorite options. Check out all of these DIY advent calendars from these wonderful ladies and see my dilemma.

Christmas Advent Wall Boxes from Adventures in Crafting


Mini Muffin Tin Advent Calendar from Sumo’s Sweet Stuff


Framed Box Advent from the Painter Family (similar to the box one above, but easily movable)


Cookie Sheet Advent
found through Tip Junkie

Santa’s Beard Advent Calendar from Make and Takes (just add cotton balls)

The image “http://crafts.kaboose.com/img/santapic.gif” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

Online Advent Calendar from Optimal Print-technically meant to count down the days to order your Christmas cards, but it has loads of cute printable games and activities, like memory, word searches and song jumbles.

However do I choose? It would be obnoxious to do multiple. Ugh. Decisions, Decisions.

(I pulled out the Christmas music today. I couldn’t help myself. After visiting Disneyland all dressed for Christmas it has been hard to come back to the real non-Christmasy world that is my fall decorated house. Thank goodness it is almost time to break open the bins and release Christmas out of it’s plastic prison.)

    I would have to agree with Corrie….I love the idea of the muffin tin as well. Easy enough that I think that I could even pull it off!

    Those are so cute. I’m supposed to finish mine today, but I’m not feeling well. We’ll see.

    I also love advent calendars and found another awesome one at http://www.youcanmakethis.com. It’s under the Toys and Activities link. I love it because it includes scriptures about Christ’s life. I like the focus it gives to Jesus this time of year.
