Celebrate all Month Advent Calendar

...Celebrate all Month....
Mitten Advent Calendar
Holidays are meant for celebrating. Why not celebrate all month long? This advent calendar is made with simple mitten shapes strung on yarn that already comes with mini pompoms sewn into it. The numbers are cut straight out of the paper stack making it super simple to create. {I used the Christmas Creations Paper Stack by DCWV.} You can write a fun activity on the back of each mitten or glue two mittens back to back to make a pocket for a special treat.

If you run a bit late with all the holiday projects on your list, you can make a mitten a day to add to the garland until you have them all. Then they will be ready to use again next year. Your advent calendar will make every day something to celebrate.

I've made the mitten template below for you. Scale it to whatever size you like best. 
Happy holiday crafting!
