My favorite thing about Christmas is the traditions. When I was younger, the family would get together and we each make our own Advent Calendars for December. It was so exciting to countdown the days of December with a small treat every night before bed. Now, I want to pass that same feeling of excitement onto my kids. Here are 25 easy DIY craft tutorial ideas for your Christmas advent calendar. Click the title below the image to get to the craft tutorial.
