Recently I shared with you my love of advent calendars. As a kid it was so fun to get a package in the mail from grandma during the holidays. We always knew that she would include on of those chocolate book advent calendars for each of us.
This year I have decided to do our advent calendar a little different. We are going to spread holiday cheer this year by doing #HolidayRandomActs at our house.
I would love it if you would join me!
You can find all the details with more printables over here.
Today I am going to show you how easy it was to make this DIY Advent Calendar.

SUPPLIES:
-Glue
-Barn wood Sign
TUTORIAL:
Cut out all of the number tags and use some glue to attach the tags to the brown bags.
Wrap 5 pieces of jute twine around a barn wood sign and tie them into a knot on the back of the sign. Use the mini clothespins to hang each of the brown bags.
This is a very easy project that the whole family can get in on!

Love how this turned out, Shonee! The barn wood is gorgeous and I really like the cute tags.

Thanks Amy! This is really our first year having one in our house and it has been so fun. I think next year my little one will really get it better.

This one totally can be finished in a hour, or less. It was been so fun to have one this year. I think my little one will really get it next year though. Have a great week!
