I seem to change my mind with Christmas decor every year. This year it’s black and white. I found this free DIY advent download at HEY LOOK. It’s total eye candy for the graphic designer in me. They’re pretty to look at, but I’m going to place these in the FAIL category for Young Family advent calendars. Even with Brad’s help it took FOR.EV.ER to put the boxes together and they won’t be usable next year. (Thanks, Memphis.) I literally turned my back for two seconds and he managed to eat 4 pieces and was working on his fifth. They live on the fridge for now, but I found him pushing a kitchen chair over to the counter earlier so I think I’ll be hiding them elsewhere tonight. Boy loves him some candy.
What a great idea to do your own advent calendar and fill it with a better treat then those horrible little chocolates that come in the store bought ones !
