For a few years I have been wanting a new way to display the holiday cards we receive and an advent calender, but I could not find anything that I liked. So this year I decided to just make them myself. I got the idea for the advent calendar from Good Housekeeping magazine, each little bag has a game, or stickers or a treat inside. And during the last days before Christmas the bags also hold a scripture reference referring to the birth of the Savior, with Luke 2 in the bag for Christmas Eve. I got the idea for the card display wreath from my friend Jessica. Although she actually made a garland for her home and she got the idea from her sister-in-law Jen. So that idea has been passed around and now I am passing it to you. Don't be too jealous of my mad crafting skills!
