#23: Let the Countdown Begin

Advent calendars are like tiny treasure chests of holiday anticipation, unveiling a new surprise or heartfelt message each day as Christmas draws near. The traditional ones sport those charming little sealed doors or windows, almost like a daily dose of holiday magic.

They come in all shapes and sizes, from hanging rectangles to tabletop boxes, each one a unique countdown to the big day. While you can easily find these gems in stores during the season, there’s something extra special about crafting your own.
