These cookie sheet advent calendars are so cute I just couldn’t resist making 1 more advent calendar!
Materials
- Cookie Sheet- found mine at the dollar store
- Mod Podge
- 25 Clear, flat-backed stones
- 25 magnets
- Christmas calendar sheet or scrapbook paper and a ruler
- Christmas clip art
- Drill
- Ribbon
1. Find 25 Christmas pictures that are about the same size as your stone. Word or Google images are a great place to look. I decided to go for a vintage look. Use a stone to trace around the picture and cut out
2. Mod podge the pictures to the stones and then add a magnet to the back
3. Mod podge your calendar page to the cookie sheet (my mom got this for me at a church Super Saturday activity, so I’m not exactly sure where it came from)
4. Drill 2 holes in the top, thread some ribbon through and knot at each end. Start your countdown to Christmas by adding 1 magnet to the calendar each day.
Merry Christmas!
