The cutest advent calendar, mittons, and burlap–are you ready?

by CHERI on November 12, 2009

Check out the great watch Tutorial and Give-A-Way

Is this not the cutest Advent calendar ever–go check out the tutorial on how to make one.  This is a great project for my kids to have in their rooms so they can count down the days.

I love those acorns

I am showing you some pictures of things I am working on:
Any ideas, what I am up to?
This inspiration came from something I saw while I was doing my tour of Petals and Potpourri.
I can’t wait to finish it and show you gals.
I picked up all the gloves while we were in Kansas City.  Gloves are hard to come by down here in SW Florida.
4 pair for my 4 kiddos.

I coffee stained these–they were pure white, I added the snowman face and all the extras around the top of the gloves.  You can see in thepicture above I haven’t finished the other glove.

Have I got you curious YET??
I am saving all my toilet paper, paper towel and gift wrap rolls–ARE YOU? Mine are for a fun and inexpensive project I want to show you.

Oh my goodness! The little santa mittens are
A-DOR-A-BLE!! I'm gonna have to make some of those. (Partially to make up for the fact that I sent my kids to school today with mismatches gloves for lack of matching ones.) 😉
