The idea behind this easy DIY project is to use affordable materials in creative ways for a surprising effect. By also randomly drawing the number for the different teas, the daily surprise will be even greater. The basic materials you need for this would be, for example, a cork board, construction paper and craft paper, felt-tip pens, drawing pins, scissors and of course the selected types of tea. Additionally, you can use a tea box for your chosen types of tea. Then follow these steps to implement the whole thing:

  • First, cut out 24 or 25 festive shapes from the construction paper - square, round or star-shaped, depending on your preference.
  • Then, use construction paper in holiday colors like red and green to create themed patterns.
  • Then write the name of the corresponding tea on each back and mix them all with the names facing down.
  • Then number each front from 1 to 24 or up to 25, without looking at the names of the tees.
  • First, you can arrange all the pieces in order on a cork board or chalkboard in the kitchen or living room using thumbtacks.
  • Store the selected types of tea either in an enclosed tea box or somewhere in the kitchen cupboard so that you can prepare the appropriate tea bag every day.
  • If it's a gift, you can simply wrap the whole thing nicely or tie it with a matching ribbon.
  • To start drinking surprising tea on the first Advent, you or your favorite person simply turn number 1 over and then prepare the type of tea you have drawn.
  • Then have each day pinned to the board in rows with the name facing the front and enjoy the tea selection until Christmas.
