Advent Calender

I was wanting to do an advent calender for the kids this year and I was trying to find one that was inexpensive to make.  I found a great idea HERE ....and after a few hours of hard work between me and my mom it was complete! I think it turned out great and I am just happy to have one complete before the 1st : )

 Here is a side view so you can see our fancy pockets....

Materials: 

-1 cereal box for base

-1 Rachel Ray Christmas magazine issue for pics on pockets

-Wrapping paper to cover the cereal box 

-Ribbon for hanging

-Black card stock for pockets

-Glue stick for attaching pics
-Hot glue to secure pockets

I found ALL these items around the house so.....
Total cost: $0.00 yay!!
