I’d like to suggest a wonderful decoration for the Advent season and Christmas that can be made quickly and easily in three steps. First, you’ll need to do a
little crocheting, then fold the pieces, and finally decorate everything with beads.
These decorations are also perfect as Christmas tree ornaments (approx. 8 cm x 10 cm) for the holidays.

A cute little angel for the Advent season is Little Angel Ella.
Whether as a heavenly messenger of good luck, a Christmas gift, or simply for yourself, this little angel with a star is always something very special.

An Advent calendar can certainly make the wait until Christmas much more enjoyable, but it does take up space. This one is very practical in that regard, as it’s very slim and can be placed on even the narrowest of surfaces.


 
The Advent calendar is made of photo cardstock, measures approximately 33 x 28.5 x 6.5 cm, and is very easy to make. You can replace the painted numbers with number stickers of a similar size. The calendar is very sturdy and can be reused multiple times.

Are you still looking for a few little things to fill your children's Advent calendar with? How about these Christmas finger puppets? You can quickly crochet the snowman, St. Nicholas, and reindeer from a few bits of leftover yarn. They help make the wait until Christmas shorter for children, because they can use them to invent and act out wonderful Advent stories.

These crocheted egg cozies are a must-have for a festively set breakfast table—even if you don’t eat eggs for breakfast—because Santa, the snowman, and the angel are real eye-catchers even as simple table decorations. Gather up some leftover yarn in Christmas colors, and you’re ready to go!
Tip: These egg cozies also make an original Secret Santa gift!

A lovely, contemplative activity is making a nativity scene during Advent.

The nativity figures can be wonderfully crocheted from leftover yarn you already have. They are about 10 cm tall, so they are not too small and fiddly to crochet, but on the other hand not too large, so they do not take up too much space.
In my shop you will find the following patterns:

 Holy Family, ox and donkey, star

3 Kings, elephant, camel, horse


Shepherds, sheep, angel
