DIY - Advent calendar
Make your advent calendar thanks to the tutorial from Kriboute.
To your wallpaper scraps!
Steps of realization :
 |
 |
 |
| Step 1 : Choose your papers. | Step 2 : Cut pieces of your chosen wallpaper to be able to create your envelopes. | Step 3 : Using the template, cut out your envelope. |
 |
 |
 |
| Step 4 : To customize the inside of your envelope, cut and glue another wallpaper pattern on the back. | Step 5 : Then fold your envelopes, leaving the upper part open (to reveal the other design). | Step 6 : You can now customize, here I have decided to add a small golden sticker. |
 |
 |
 |
| Step 7 : Add the dates of the advent. | Step 8 : You are going to need some small cardboard boxes. | Step 9 : Cut your wallpaper to the size of the box surface. |
 |
 |
 |
| Step 10 : Glue your paper to the cardboard box. | Step 11 : On a square of artists foam board, glue your paper to the desired length. | Step 12 : Add if you wish a second paper design, always applying firmly to the foam board. |
 |
 |
 |
| Step 13 : You can also add a sheet of colored paper to brighten up and make your wallpaper design stand out. | Step 14 : On the back of the foam board, glue the support you have selected, a piece of wood for example, here we used a piece of cardboard covered with paper in the same color for a clean look. You just need to add a nice ribbon. | Step 15 : You can now start hanging your decorations, your small boxes and envelope creations. |
Your calendar is ready to help you countdown to Christmas.
And if you have some paper leftover, don't hesitate to use it for your Presents!
