Activity Advent Calendar: You-Print-It, Part 2


Here's our version of the activity advent calendar:


After printing the two calendar pages, fill in the activities.


Perforate the "doors". I used my sewing machine without thread, at a stitch length of 1.6. The back looks like a bunch of "I"s.


Line up the two sheets, holding it up to light to match the squares, and attach. I stitched the top and bottom.


I stitched bias tape, about a 36" piece, onto the sides leaving a hanging loop at the top.


And I could not stop myself from opening the first little door. Which is so cheating. And reminds me of opening the doors on my chocolate advent calendar as a kid and hoping my Mom didn't notice.



Pin It!
