Christmas countdown!

With December 1st around the corner—TOMORROW (eeek!)—many of us like to pull out our advent calendars. It always makes the wait so much more fun!

So... have we got a countdown idea for you, created by Katie Rasmussen. It involves candy. Which automatically ups its coolness level. Katie took cellophane and wrapped up candy for each 25 days, and then wrapped them together and tacked on darling ornaments using the Fancy Pants Christmas Magic kit. She decided to make hers quite large, so once all 25 days were attached to each other she had quite the chain! Check out these pictures!










































































































































































With each passing day you can open up a new goodie and you and your family can enjoy a tasty treat and being one day closer to Christmas!

What do your advent calendars look like?

Happy holidays!
