OMG!! Nichole, this is so gorgeous!! Please tell Kelly to consider making this into a kit! I love the wreaths, numbers, bows, snowflakes and the cream and gold!! So beautiful!!!!
Oh my goodness Nichol, THIS. IS. STUNNING!! This is a wonderful gift to your family in and of itself and I'm sure they'll treasure it. I think the cream/ivory/gold is a lovely combination for the holidays and you've totally nailed it with this gorgeous Advent Calendar. Thanks so much for sharing and I hope you're having a great week. ~HUGS~

I think I will be making this one this year. Looks so great. 4 little trees for 4 little treats. I hope it comes out well- I still have a few weeks to make it. I should start today just to be sure I get it all done. Tx for the great idea
Have fun with this project! So happy we inspired you! :)
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
So gorgeous, elegant and fabulous!!! Tfs. Katie♡
Wow! That was a lot of work but it turned out beautifully. Great tip, making the hinges to create the circle of boxes. Thanks so much for sharing.
So Pretty, Nichol!
I love this idea
How wonderful. I can think of many ways to use this project. Keep up the great job!
Absolutely beautiful! WOW!!!
These would be awesome at a craft sale , just unsure how much to ask for them
This is stunning! Nichol did an awesome job!
Wonderful project. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely beautiful!
So lovely Nichol!!! I’ grateful you shared this!!!
That is beautiful! Congratulations on making such a beautiful ornament!
Beautiful project!
Wowzer! You outdid yourself, really really beautiful 😀
This is such a great advent calendar !!
That is just beautiful!
Gorgeous!
So beautiful and inspiring. Thank you.
So beautiful!!!
Simply AMAZING!!!!
Beautiful!!
Gorgeous color combo!!! Lovin' this project!!
Beautiful!!!!
it's so cute. I would advise to use hot glue gun, little bit of wiggle time, but no need to keep the tabs in place until the glue sticks, it's almost instant. I do all my boxes or treat bags with glue gun
This is Beautiful... ! And, as it happens, the exact color scheme I have planned for this year... ( bonus! ) ... : >
I love it!!!
love it! what a gorgeous colour combo, well done:)
wow. so pretty ! :)
Good Better BEST
Hi. Can you suggest where do I get those accessories.. in bulk.
Hello, I'm so happy you found this video and it inspired you! Nichol created everything she used on this project using Lawn Fawn products. Please check out the supply list below the video for links to everything she used. Thank you so much :)
I don't know if you can answer this or not, but how many 12x12 papers did you need for each color? Or did you use 6x6 paper, and how much paper in each print. Thank you in advance. Just love this project!
Hello! when using 12 x 12 paper you can cut 6 Tiny Gift Boxes from each sheet. I hope this helps to answer your question. :)
So beautiful. It looks like a real labor of love though. I'm curious how many hours in total it took?
Beautiful. What is the sticker box that you are using in this video?
It is a wonderful project. I am making one now. and I used a harder paper (300g) because the boxes need to hold havier stuff.
My issues are:
- using liquid glue - it is very hard to stick the sides - I need to keep preassure on each flop.
- the boxes don't close - they are keep opening up: Do you have any suggestion to keep them closed (while not glue the top on it)?
Hi, we would suggest using Scor-tape to secure the sides, it's a strong hold double-sided tape that will bond instantly. Remember to use a bone folder on each of the score lines to get a really good crease on all sides, this should help the box to close easier and stay closed. I hope these suggest work for you. Thanks so much :)
Hello the tree moved so fast I couldn’t count how many boxes on each level. I thought I heard u say the bottom row didn’t count. So u did 7 bottom , then how many per row? Yes it’s a lovely calendar. Betty
I think bottom layer (wood base boxes) are 5,
Then 7 boxes on top of the base,
Then 6 boxes on top of that,
Then 5 boxes, 4 boxes, 3 boxes.
There is no layer with 2 boxes, she just puts 1 box on top of the layer of 3 boxes.
Where did you find the box die cutter?
This fun advent calendar was made using our Tiny Gift Box die set! You can find it here: www.lawnfawn.com/products/tiny-gift-box?_pos=1&_sid=85b45f1d0&_ss=r Thanks so much :)
Where do you get a die cutter from?
This is so pretty but so difficult for me lol...
I know im 2 yrs late but i want to buy that purple x tape thing at 8:17 . Where do i get it?
