My store offers Advent calendars for just about every taste: the outer shape, container sizes, space requirements, and difficulty levels vary widely, so you’re sure to find something that meets your expectations.

I’ll start with a calendar, which doesn’t actually require any special space, since the individual containers are simply hung up, e.g. on a stretched cord or on a decorated Christmas tree. This calendar is also the easiest to make.



This calendar also takes up very little space—you can even set it up on a windowsill. However, it requires careful and precise work.



This little Christmas tree is only suitable for experienced crafters, and the upper containers are tiny—these are two important points you should definitely keep in mind when choosing.



This calendar, on the other hand, is very easy to make, though precise work is important here as well.



This one is also a cube, but significantly more challenging: assembling the individual containers is very simple, but putting them together to form a cube absolutely requires spatial awareness.



This little house is slightly larger but just as compact. In addition to six small and six very small containers, it also includes twelve really large ones.



And here’s another building—this time, a knight’s castle with a very large, removable 25th container in the center.




You’ll need significantly more space for this calendar, but it’s very easy to make.



This calendar also requires a larger open space, but you can use it for other purposes as well: with four candles and some decorations in the center, it transforms into a pretty Advent wreath.



All the Advent calendars featured here are made from photo cardstock.

These little fir trees are quick and easy to crochet. They’re hollow inside and can be made in various sizes. This creates a beautiful, wintry fir forest that you can use as an Advent calendar.

A small pocket is worked into the back of the snowflakes. This means they can be used not only as window decorations but also as an Advent calendar for small candies, gift certificates, or similar items.

Santa Claus in his reindeer sleigh is a very special kind of Advent calendar, because Santa’s sack has to be refilled every day. This way, you can respond to current little wishes while also preventing overly curious people from discovering the surprises ahead of time.
The individual parts aren’t permanently attached to each other. This lets you arrange the scene a little differently each day.

Along with Advent calendars, which are wonderful for sweetening the wait for Christmas, we can also make things cozy with beautiful decorations.
Here I’d like to show you two designs from my store.
One of them is this tealight holder—a small poinsettia as a source of light.



And here is something else to hang up:  A variation of the traditional Advent star.



Both designs are made from photo cardstock and decorated with glitter liner. For the Advent star, I also used organza with glitter.

The two winter children, Lea and Luca, make for a particularly pretty decoration for the Advent season.
Snowball fights, building snowmen, and of course sledding—what could be better? :)

And little angel Esme is also a wonderful decoration for the Advent season.
Perfect as a Christmas-themed stair or ledge sitter.
