Paper Pouches Advent Calendar

Checking out the Christmas section at IKEA is a must every year. This year I could not believe the beautiful gift wrapping available. I bought more than I could ever use in the next few years, but I could not resist to not get any of these whimsical papers. This paper pouch Advent calendar can also be made out of left over gift wrap, magazine pages, hand-lettered or painted sheets of paper. It takes about the length of a movie to make the calendar.

The pouches are not overly big. They can hold a piece of candy or chocolate. This colourful Advent calendar is also a wonderful gift for a friend or co-worker. It’s a Christmas present that can be enjoyed while counting down to Christmas.

Instructions

Put a sticker with the number on the pouch before filling and closing. Alternatively you can also write the numbers on the paper itself.
