This is gorgeous. I’m 61 and don’t have any little but I love this and think I might do it for me. Is that selfish? I love Christmas.

@brendaoberle2001 3 жыл бұрын

I think that's a great idea!! Us adults need a little treat everyday!!

@sherifrease6085 3 жыл бұрын

I don' t have any littles and it isn't selfish to make one to enjoy yourself, I am going to make one for each of my 4 brothers' family.

no, you deserve it

Heck no! Enjoy yourself... Merry Christmas!

@darskicutler1894 3 жыл бұрын

I think it is a wonderful idea. might I suggest that you get all the 'prizes' you want in your boxes and have a friend fill them for you so you still get a 'surprise' when you open them

@petrak9898 Жыл бұрын

Today is the 1.1.2023...I have enough time to make it for december 2023♡ you did a great job and I love your voice 😀

Cricut has a great box for this project. Trust me I made 28 advent books last year. That’s 672 little boxes and each had a bow on it. It was fun though.

This is great. I have to say, yours are the clearest tutorials I've ever seen anywhere on KZfaq.

@wendywilson1736 3 жыл бұрын

Yeah. It's a beautiful book calendar! But with our kids doing Elf on the shelf, too, we may get the little "job" of refilling the boxes for them.😉

@bhandy1000 3 жыл бұрын

You don't know how HAPPY I am to see this. I make my grandchildren an Advent activity box every year and this will help me tremendously. I need to get busy!! Thanks so much, Maymay. You always make your instructions so easy to follow.

I'm so glad you figured it out, I been wanting to make one but didn't see any I liked and some were expensive dies and I still couldn't commit. I think I like this one and its more of what I had in my head but polished. I don't think I will make it this year cause I'm trying to get things in the mail and not pull 19 and nothing got finished or mailed, just Xmas cards. I think I will have to make several next year i want to get them done early so i can make everyone one. This makes me happy and i hope i can pull them off for next year. thanks.

@bettyalbright1740 3 жыл бұрын

Gonna have to make these for the grandkids. Think I will put in mini candy bars and some money. Will use a combo of 1,5,10 and 20 dollar bills. Think will do a 20 on the 15 as it was my anniversary and then a 10 on the 3rd as that is my birthday. Will use 1and 5 for the rest of the days

@kathybutchart6895 3 жыл бұрын

This is so stinking clever!!! I am so LOVING the use of the Sweater paper. It is great for households that don't have much room. My favorite Advent Calendar makes a diorama. Thinking about making one for my daughter and her new baby.

I guess I’m going to be making lots of boxes for a crafting Advent Calendar for my Mum.../sigh. Wish I could just skip to decorating one 😁 Thank you so much for being so precise with all the measurements to make sure things fold ok & have enough room to open. Now I just have to try to make them work with A4 & A3 cardstock & metric measurements 🤔 I suspect that will make it more than one day’s make & a big headache for me. Oh well. Will be worth it!

@bhornannawindeedeigh5007 Жыл бұрын

You have such excellent tutorials. You have got to be a teacher/professor, because You Are So Good at what you do in your tutorials. I could listen to you and take your classes All Day Long, All Year Long- I am Not Kidding! 😃 You are an absolute delight! 🤩 Thanks for being so laser focused and so clear with your instructions. You make everything look so easy, and I always have a great time trying to reproduce your projects. 💐
