…compilation of tutorials
This here is actually meant as picture frame Christmas tree, but I find that it would also be great as picture frame Advent calendar ;-)
You only have to put in coupons or beautiful pictures and then put on the number that can be taken away every day.

Somehow I seem to be completely fixated on Advent calendars at the moment because the tutorial for the decorated lids originally doesn’t have anything to do with Advent calendars ;-)
But it it works of course if you glue numbers on and put a (gift) coupon into the lid :))
What is more it surely would also be nice if you glue photos of your loved ones in the center of the lids (ok, then it surely wouldn’t be an Advent calendar anymore ;-))

I am amazed about all those cute ideas for Advent calendars, like this clothespins Advent calendar :)

=> as per text on the picture it should come from umla.tumblr.com but I didn’t found it there
Isn’t this cute? Simply sew one more button every day on the pocket and the button Advent calendar is completed ;-)
It would be still more interesting for the recipient if the days were not in order, they would have to count many, many buttons every day ;-))
Hm, and you could make the thing also with beads, then even smaller (for those who don’t want to have too much in their Advent calendar).

I’ve seen a tutorial for a cute gift wrapping from woven Space invaders and thought immediately: it must be possible to decorate an Advent calendar with them!
It is ;-)
For the number I used paper from an Christmas ad and for the background plain printer paper.
Here you have all numbers, enjoy :))

If you need it for cooking but don’t have enough room in the kitchen try the cookbook holder ;-)
