My Advent Calendar


Let me start off by saying that these pictures are not that great, but I wanted to share them with you anyway.
I haven't a clue what I am doing when I take photos and white is a hard color to photograph...at least in
my opinion. :)


Sandi over at A Cottage Muse inspired me to make my own advent calendar this year and this is the result.
I had so much fun shopping my home and using bits and bobs from here and there.


 I even used an old frame that I had laying around. I got it FREE at a garage sale down the road a
couple years ago and painted it white. I love it.


I opted to hang three waxed twine strings on the back of the frame and thread my tags onto them.
It wasn't as easy as it sounds. I spaced them out evenly at first, but then when I got the tags all on,
the bottom row was hanging on the frame. I don't know about you, but a little trial and error always
 happens at this house!


If you haven't made one, I encourage you to give it a try. It is FUN!


About the picture taking again, the lighting in this house stinks especially in the winter months so
 I work with what little I have. :)


Are you ready for Christmas?? Ready or not...here it comes!!!
Blessings~
