I'm SO excited about this project, for many reasons: when I saw this advent calendar idea in the galleries last year, in December, it was too late for me to make my own calendar. But I planned accordingly, and throughout the following months I've been gathering all the necessary supplies ($1 cookie sheets, $1 star glittery stickers, ribbon, buttons, etc.) and when inspiration finally struck me last month (I didn't quite feel like using Christmas products before then! ;) ), I was ready, and completed it in under a week (just a few hours' work in fact). I'm also really happy because I made two calendars (one for me and one for my mom) and finished them right in time for my husband to bring my mom's calendar to her when he flew out to see her.
Now, I really cannot wait for November to be over, so I can hang up my calendar and start using it! ;)
Besides, this was the first time I used magnetic paper, and I absolutely love it!
Anyway, here's what my calendar looks like:
Here's the full view (sorry for the ugly picture, I have to retake it but have been too lazy..):
and here's the digital version of the numbers:
