Handmade Advent Calendars

When I was little, I got an “Adventskalender” from my super-German, super-old grandparents (ahem - Oma & Opa) every December. I always loved the surprise of opening the little doors to find out what kind of candy was hidden inside. I still buy advent calendars for myself every year and it is still pretty fun counting down the days until Christmas. Here are some grown-up, handmade advent banners and calendars found on Etsy.
