Craft Fair Goodies

For a few months I have been making things like crazy for a Craft Fair.  It was this last weekend but unfortunately I had to miss 2 of the 3 days due to illness.  As a result, I have a ton of things left over.  Here is one item  - Advent Boxes.

The idea and the Kraft boxes came from Stampin Up.  I did not want to buy another stamp set so I bought the boxes but made my own numbers with the Doodle Pantry set  "Classical Numbers".   The numbers in words are computer generated.  Here is a pic of all the numbers in the set.  You can see there are two styles as well as solid and outline:

Each box is 2 x 2 and can be filled with candy, nuts, snack mix, verse or sentiment, really whatever you want you child to have each day before Christmas.  One lady bought a set for an elderly couple who live in a senior community so I guess they are not just for kids.  I'm tempted to fill a set with Lindt Chocolate balls for myself.  Would that make me limit the candy to one a day?  No, but it was a nice thought.

I fell in love with this idea when I saw it in the SU catalog.  I am always on the lookout for a fun, cute advent calendar.  This was it!  I made 4 for my grandchildren.
Because I do have quite a few left over, if you would be interested in one, you can email me at
mkdrain@gmail.com and we can make Paypal arrangements.  I had them priced at $20 but for you, my special peeps, I will pay the postage.  Now I sound like a TV infomercial !!!
