@Authors,

Good things come to those who wait: An idea I’ve had in mind for quite some time has finally been brought to life!

Time is running short, but if you still have a few free evenings, you’ll be able to finish the calendar in plenty of time.



This Advent calendar is made of photo-quality cardstock and measures approximately 18.5 x 34 x 18.5 cm. The tower in the middle can be removed and serves as a container for gifts that don’t fit into the small numbered compartments.

The calendar requires time, patience, and precision. It’s therefore only suitable for crafters who already have some experience.

Beautiful, useful, or even simply delicious Christmas gifts absolutely need to be wrapped for Christmas. And what could be nicer for that than a handmade gift wrapping?


 
This pretty, colorful gift bag with decorated Christmas trees on both sides is made from photo cardstock and measures approx. 22 x 25.5 x 9 cm. It is quick and easy to make.

@InnasBasteleien: Wow, the castle is awesome!

If you still need the right numbering for your Advent calendar, the Advent Calendar Numbers cut file is a great choice.



The file includes 3 versions of the numbers - circles with a round border, a wavy border, and a star border. Each version also includes a candle, a heart, a star, and a snowflake.

This is what the whole thing could look like when finished.



You can find the file here.

This tea light decoration brings Christmas spirit to the table.



The tea light sleeves are available as a cut file with four different motifs:

• Heart
• Christmas tree
• Snowman
• Christmas stocking

The tea light strips are closed with a hook fastener—no additional glue is needed.

 

You can find the file here.

With this card, you can present a cash gift for St. Nicholas Day in a particularly stylish way.


 
The St. Nicholas Day card is made from cardstock and construction paper and measures approx. 21 x 10.5 cm. Although the card includes many small decorative elements, it is quick to make. Anyone who already has some experience with pop-up cards will be able to recreate this one without difficulty.

The little guardian angel also works well as a Christmas angel, for example as a Christmas tree ornament or gift tag, and he has a big heart for you or for someone you’d like to send on their way with a guardian angel.



The angel is very easy to make, even for beginners. In the pattern, every single step is shown to you with a threading diagram and photos with explanations, so you can easily and successfully make the guardian angel yourself.

Here’s another lovely addition for your table: a festive look for your tea lights!



These tea light holders are made from photo cardstock and measure approximately 14 x 14 x 2 cm. They can be made in one color or two colors with the decoration shown, from photo cardstock with a Christmas print, or from specialty papers with a thickness similar to photo cardstock.
