Advent Calendars

Now we'll be thinking about getting the Christmas stuff out - one of the first things on our minds could be an Advent Calendar.  Do you use an advent calendar?

 

Here is a great looking advent garland from Paloma's Nest

 

The cost is over a hundred dollars, so it's not coming to my home, but I can see this as a great idea with wooden circles or cardboard tags and numbers cut from a Silhouette or Cricut or purchased number stickers.  Easy Peasy!

Maybe I could even roll out my own clay, cut it, stamp it, and dry it to make these exact things ..., maybe!
