Advent Calendar Tree

Nice Package is a place where you can purchase creative packaging goods and customize them with your own brand. Nice Package also came up with this really neat way to display an Advent Calendar and posted a tutorial using their small manila envelopes. Inside each envelope there is a clue telling the person where to find the Advent Gift of the day. There may be two weeks left til Christmas, but it’s never too late to start counting down!

Snowman Kit

Looking for a diy gift to give this holiday season? Make a Snowman Kit this year! This is such a cute idea, and would make a great gift for someone who lives up in the snowy states unlike me! I can’t get over what a cool idea this is, all you need are some buttons, a scarf, top hat, black rocks, and a fake carrot. Package it all together with a note attached saying “Just add snow!” Check out Make it Do for an official tutorial.

Felt Christmas Lights

I’ve been finding a lot of really cool felt tutorials lately, probably enough to have yourself a felt Christmas. It may be a little too late to start an advent calendar, but it’s not too late to decorate. Elsie Marley has a great tutorial on how to make a felt string of lights.

Christmas Tree Skirt

I’ve been toting around my Christmas tree from apartment to apartment and never had a skirt for it. I just never get around to buying one. Well I came across this tutorial created by the paper pony on how to make a tree skirt that doesn’t require any sewing! This is so great, all you need are two pieces of felt and some string.
