Hi! Lisa here from Lisa’s Creative Niche and I’m excited to share my Holiday project with you all today! My children and I just love Advent Calendars, and do a different one every year. They personally love the ones with little goodies in it, and I prefer the ones I can make myself. So this year I have combined the both of best worlds! Instead of a Calendar this year I have created Advent baggies! Not only does it make it easier to hide their daily surprises, but it almost feels like opening a present everyday until Christmas!

Things you need:
Small white paper bags
Blank arrow tags
Number stickers
Sequins
Felt ornament stickers
Christmas stickers
Bakers twine
Jingle bells
Washi tape
Hole Punch
Spray Adhesive – optional
Glitter – optional

Things to do:
1. Trim washi tape and adhere to bottom of your white bag. Adhere Felt Ornament Stickers and Christmas Stickers 1 per bag.
2. Adhere number stickers and washi to arrow tags and set to the side.

3. This step is optional I wanted a little more sparkle to my bags, so I chose to spray adhesive on my jingle bells and add glitter.
4. Punch a hole in the middle of your top bag fold and tie arrow tags and one jingle bell with your bakers twine.
5. Adhere Sequins as desired to ornaments and or the front of the bag.

Now all you have to do is fill it with surprise goodies and your countdown to Christmas is ready to spread cheer and joy! Hope you enjoy and if you make a Christmas countdown with some of our products we’d love to see them… feel free to share them below in the comments or on our Facebook page.

Happy Crafting!
