Handmade Advent Calendar Ideas

  Handmade Advent Calendar Ideas

‘Round here handmade advent calendar ideas are it.

Either you make it yourself or you buy one made by another momma. 😉  You won’t see any little people advent calendars on the hearth.  I don’t like store bought or mass produced because I don’t believe the love’s in it.  I thought I’d share some of the favorites I’ve found.

via PinkSuedeShoe

Pink Suede Shoe has made these CUTE Christmas trees and she has a printable.  They’d be beautiful on the nature table too….and used year round.

Oh, this one has a special place in my heart!!  The felt, the simple hand embroidery and those wee little dangles!  All Sorts Makery has made this one usable for year round use too.  The same envelopes could be used for Valentines by dropping down to 14, replacing the dangles with hearts & cupids…yup.. I’m in love! 🙂

via Felt House Adventures

Nancy over at Felt House Adventures made these little homes and sewed them to their little “street” rick rack.  If we lived on a street I’d make a “Street Advent Calendar”.

via CrapIveMade

I wish she was still blogging but all the lovelies are still there to check out.  This one…SUPER simple diy.  eyehooks, wire/string/trim, little envelopes, ribbon and stickers.  EASY!

via 3G’s

I like the simplicity of Ashley’s advent calendar.  The squares would be easy enough for little ones doing handwork and could be sewn quickly with straight stitches.

I LOVE this one.  She gives all kinds of filler ideas on her post but what I love is how cheap this could be made.  You could pick a frame up from Goodwill, spray paint it, glue on some boxes with paper covered tops, add the numbers using wooden numbers, stickers and such.  You could make it classic Christmas red and green or a some of the teal, magenta and lime green I’ve seen everywhere the last bit.

I’ve pinterests boards full of Christmas, diy gift ideas and  handmade advent calendar ideas.  So hop over, follow all or the boards you like, repin your favorites and comment on the one’s you really love  And, don’t forget to enter the 5 Freebie Friday Giveaway for the My Christmas Wish: A Devotional Journal for Kids.

This week I’ve all kinds of goodies to share to help you plan for advent.  See ya tomorrow!

About Honey Rowland

Organic since it was a dirty hippie word is an easy way to understand me. With 3 kiddos (7, 14, and 16) and one bearded hubby I raise chickens, ducks, turkeys, goats, rabbits and Great Pyrenees livestock guardians on our organically ran mini farm in Ohio. A bull calf and heritage breed pigs have recently been added, along with an impending move into our less than 600 sq ft tiny home that's more and more off grid with each solar panel we buy.

Homeschooling, green living, self-sufficiency and natural parenting (but with yelling) is the norm here. Any skipping through the tulips tends to end with a face plant in chicken or duck poo but being a "glass half full" kind of gal I can smile 'cause the poo is organic and non-gmo!

    I love every one of them, but especially the last one. I have thought of making an advent calendar but have never gotten around to it. I’m going to have to try this one. Thanks. And thank you for co-hosting the Boost Challenge.
