This is the best I could do!...a fairy condo of match boxes that I hot glued together and prettied up! I REALLY wanted to copy the "bucket" ideas (below) but since tomorrow is December 1st and I couldn't find any buckets, I realized I had to come up with something else! I also loved the socks and mittens (below) but it looked like they required some type of sewing?? So I went with this.....no bigger than the size of my peppermint mocha!!
Each matchbox holds a piece of paper with a"Family Activity" to be enjoyed each day. Some of the family activities include; family movie night, volunteering at the Humane Society, shopping for our Angel Tree boy, board game night, making Christmas cookies, making a holiday fairy garden, Subway lunch at school with mom, making wrapping paper and wrapping grandparent gifts, filling a bag with food from the pantry and dropping off to a local shelter, stringing popcorn and making pinecone feeders for our animal friends, making snowflakes and paper chains, Elfing ourselves and emailing to grandparents, reading all of our Christmas storybooks, having a dinner picnic by the evergreen forest (or by the Christmas tree), going on a Starbucks run for hot chocolate and looking at lights.
Tomorrow is Day ONE! I think we "Write a letter to Santa" tomorrow.....I already forgot! .......and look who popped out of the tree to say good night...and Happy December!!!
