Our Advent Calendar- Cute & Frugal Project
Yesterday, I delved into Jenn's Advent Idea Box. We had so much fun with it. We did some regular school but incorporated this into our Bible time and Art time. We made our Jesse tree and hung it on the door; pics will come later after all the ornaments are put on. Our art project was especially fun, though. In fact, Jacob said it was the "best art project" he's ever done....he and Jaden both had so much fun. I did too, actually. We all got in on the fun.
When we had all of them decorated, I used plain old twine and paper clips to hang them, as that's what we had on hand. It actually turned out really cute.
Now I just have to fill the envelopes with a treat for each day....seeing as today's the first day, I'd better get on that.:)

How resourceful! I love how they came out! Thanks for the link. I just saw that ABC and 123 blog did a round up on advent calenders. There was one...I can't think of the name now. But she had great ideas for the notes. I have only written 4 so far. I was going to use some of her ideas. Hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas season. Ok I had to check - it was bugging me, Here is her site...

Wow! Your momma's heart continues to pull at my own. Sigh. All I have now is memories...and albums full of pictures--like yours!!!
