It might not tickle your fancy, but I think it's shiny and new (like a virgin lol). This advent calender is from Silhouette and they have some really cute box die-cuts I'm loving day 5, 7, 10, 13 and 20. All of the little boxes have treats, toys and items for the boy's mini Christmas Tree. Like ornaments, lights and a charming gumdrop star (I'll post about that next week). What's in each box?
- Chocolate coins, noise makers, Christmas lights
- Sprinkles for cookies, ring pops, garland for boy's tree
- White chocolate pertizzels, star ornaments, movie night treat (Elf)
- Ornaments and suckers
- Gingerbread house window jellies.
- Blue and purple mustaches, chocolate coins, ornaments
- Trail mix and chocolate coins
- Ornament melting beads (Santa and penguin), ribbon candy
- Candy canes, snowflake ornaments, snow ball gum balls
- Lolly pop ornaments, mini stamps, sixlets
- Star ornaments, slime, chocolate coins
- Snowflake ornaments, Santa chocolates, slinkies, chocolate coins
- Ornaments to paint, chocolate coins
- Snowman ring pops, ornaments, family field trip to see Christmas lights
- Family field to the snow, candy bags, ornaments
- Family field trip to see the LA Temple lights, peeps, lolly pop ornaments
- Family fields trip for Christmas caroling, Santa chocolates, whistles
- Crystal snowman and tree crafts, trail mix, snowflake ornaments
- Cupcake baking, chocolate coins, colorful snowflake ornaments
- Funny glasses with nose, chocolate coins, snowflake ornaments
- $20 for each of the boys...to buy each other a Christmas gift (shopping field trip), star ornaments

Super cute!!!!! I waited to late to pick up an advent calender this year....... so I will be making one!
I love Advent Calendars, but I'm all about the red and green. Maybe it's because it isn't cold where we live, but I don't like the cool silver/blue color combos for Christmas. I think of Christmas with warm colors. I love red and green with browns and golds.
Hating red and green sounds like the Grinch to me! That's what Christmas is! Just sayin! But, I love the advent calendar. It looks great (not like Christmas but great nonetheless)
P.S. Your boys are spoiled :)
This is so much fun!! I love the different box sizes! I've never done an advent calender (I don't have any kids) but I sure like yours. Great color scheme too!
