Lucy and I wanted to celebrate the Christmas joy a bit differently this year. So we made our own Advent Tree calendar with some ribbon, tags and shiney card from Paperchase.
On the back of each tag is a different Christmas task. Some are big (go ice skating) and needed careful choosing for what day to do it. But most are small (play your favourite Christmas song) and randomised. We offered 12 ideas each, cross-checked by our housemate Ed for any duplicates.
It was a bit fiddly to put it together though with each other’s help and a glass of wine we love how it looks. You could take the idea of daily Christmas tasks but simplify the calendar design. It would work as envelopes to open each day or cards on a peg.
We’ve loved making the calendar together and excited for our 24 days of joy.
