I love sharing DIY Christmas countdowns and I always share them early so you have time to tackle them well before the holidays. I've made many over the years and these little boxes were a favorite:
We still have these and I just adore them! It was such a fun project -- I still remember working on these. 💗
This knock-off Christmas countdown I made a few years ago is another one I love -- it survived the move pretty well. I was surprised! Just have to decide where it will hang this year:
The link for each project is included under the photos.
This Christmas tree advent calendar is one of the cutest and most original I've seen in a long time!:
Jaime is SO talented and always creates the greatest wood projects. This one is so simple even the youngest kiddos can move the tree:
This one is hung on a glass door (which is so pretty), but you could easily use an old window or just a large frame!:
I just think this is the cutest! Made from a cookie sheet and perfect to prop up in the kitchen:
This one is made of scrap wood and I think it's brilliant -- if you have wood in your garage this one would be close to free!:
I love the use of a pretty old frame for this one, and it's a pretty easy project:
These little tiny houses are the CUTEST! How adorable. Kids will love opening these up for small treats or activities:
This one is just festive -- you can write activities on the back of each number:
If you're looking for the prettiest option, this is it! I love that this uses a bulletin board -- no special DIY needed:
How CUTE. The Target dollar spot is full of cute holiday socks right now...
This is a more rustic version that I love. You could easily paint the wood to add some color:
And finally, more cute little houses! Adoyable (as my niece says). These are made out of wood:
So cute right?? I love the creativity and that they are all so unique. Not one would cost a ton of money either. I'm definitely getting the Christmas decorating bug...when do you start?
Hi! I love your blog! I get so many great ideas coming here. I have a question from a couple posts back....can you share where you bought the metal art above your little table in the basement? I have seen many of these medallion type art but I can't find the one you have. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could remember! I think maybe it was Pier 1 but I've had it for at least ten years. :)
DeleteSo many great ideas, can't wait to try some of them - mostly because I live in Hong Kong and we don't have a lot of advent calendar choices for sale out there! ❤️
