my advent!


sunday morning my mom was blog lurking and stumbled upon little birdie secrets... she saw the advent calendar made by Teresa McFayden and was immediately inspired. we (her, Lindsey, and I) got some cookie sheets, went to a joann's, and got to work. i heart the way they turned out, even though it took me a ridiculous amount of time to make and got so frustrated in the middle i about threw a hissy.
 
finished products (the numbers are little magnets so you just put one more up each day):





you want one of your own huh??
