Design your own Advent calendar for men
It's definitely worth having your own Advent calendar! You can hide 24 individual and unique surprises in it and even reuse it every year. However, crafting shouldn't be difficult and time-consuming, so we have prepared 3 simple and creative DIY ideas for you.
- From painted mason jars:First, remove the lids from the jars and attach the adhesive labels that you have labeled in advance to them. Paint the inside of the jars in the desired color and allow them to dry completely. Take a hanger and hang the filled jars with a string.
- With boxes:Small gift packaging is perfect for making a unique calendar for the Advent season. Simply label the small boxes and decorate them with bows, pompoms and festive elements. Choose colors such as blue, green, gray and yellow, which are preferred by men. Then arrange the 24 box on a board and attach it with hot glue gun.
- From bread bags:Another very simple idea is to hide the little surprises in bread bags. If you want to create a nice contrast, you can combine them with Christmas paper bags. Attach the stickers with the numbers and form a Christmas tree when arranging them. Complete your project with a glittery star at the top.
