It's time to create a wonderful new Christmas tradition with this reusable advent calendar. There's no better way to bring festive cheer to your home, it also makes a thoughtful gift for loved ones. Handmade from high-quality, festive fabric, this advent calendar is designed to be cherished year after year. This panel is called Merry Menagerie, produced by Dashwood Studio, a UK based textile design company.
Its cute design, and 25 numbered pockets create a magical countdown to Christmas. Each pocket is decorated with a festively dressed animal e.g. a lemur with antlers on and a gorilla with an elf hat on ♥️. There is plenty of room for treats and could even accommodate treats for two if you wanted to share! I have used a thin 2 ounce wadding to make the advent a sturdier. The back is quilted with vertical lines and I have used a red and white starry cotton fabric. It's top stitched around the top to prevent rolling. The hanging loops are made from gingham ribbon.
🎄Looking for a personalised touch?
Have the advent personalised with red or blue felt bunting, and choose from a range of fonts and font colours. The bunting is attached using red satin ribbon and decorated with gold bells and red bows.
The bunting is approximately 4.5 cm (1 6/8 inches) wide and 5cm (2 inches) at the longest point.
Please note the dowel rod and chocolates are not included.
