I know I'm a little late on this post, seeing as we are only 10 days away from Christmas, but one of my favorite childhood Christmas memories was keeping watch over my family's Advent Calendar. It just made the countdown to the "Big Day" seem even more exciting. Here are some of my favorites to save for next year:
A DIY calendar made from stacked matchboxes via Martha. Instructions here.
My favorite one this year: hats and mittens from Garnet Hill. So freakin' cute!
Buckets of Joy Advent Calendar (Garnet Hill)
Hand-crafted pine Advent Calendar (Pottery Barn)
Cotton pouches Advent Calendar -- picture these filled with candy and laid out on a vintage silver tray (NuvoNova)
Brooklyn Advent Calendar (Noveau Designs)
