Christmas Card Advent Calendar

DIY Holiday Decor- Christmas Advent Calendar
DIY-How to do a advent calendarI didn't know what was an event calendar till recently. I had gone to Target and noticed that they had an advent calendar for $15 and it was shaped into a tree. It was fairly simple and didn't really stand out, so I decided to make my own for only $4. To create this advent calendar you will need white ribbon, cork board, a pack of varied Christmas cards, wrapping paper, and a hot glue gun. If you don't have a cork board you can use cardboard paper or a foam board instead. To start of you will need to wrap the board in wrapping paper  like a gift and glue the ribbon in the top back of the board. Then you will take your cards and and cut out the back of the card. Fold the sides and the bottom of the front card. Add glue to the sides and paste it on the board, so it looks like a pocket. Do this with the next twenty four cards and write out the number of each day on the cards. When everything is all set and done you can hang it up and put chocolate or any other treats.
