Our Advent Calendar

Hi Friends!
Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving.  Ours was great!  So good to see lots of family and have some yummy food.

I can't believe it's already December...and since it is, it's time to begin our Advent Calendar.  I made ours from felt and a bunch of holiday fabric scraps.

 Underneath each number is a pocket.  For the last couple of years, I filled each pocket with treats and small presents.  This year, I found this great felt nativity set at a craft store (for like $1!), so I'll be dividing up the pieces and the girls will add a part of the nativity scene each day.

 
 
What are some of your ideas for Advent Calendars?  I've seen so many cute ones on Pinterest and elsewhere...I'd like to do a new idea each year!

Have a crafty day!
