3D Advent Calendars

This DIY Advent Calendar Will Get You ExcitedAabout Christmas

— November 29, 2013 — Art & Design
Etsy seller 'LittleLlamaShoppe' has created a DIY advent calendar that stands out from the rest. This advent calendar is different from others because it is made of individual 3D paper boxes.

The boxes can be arranged in any order you like. Anything is possible; all in a row, made into a box city, constructed into a triangle shaped tower or even hung on the Christmas tree.

The advent calendar is DIY, so you pay for the printable PDF and the easy to understand instructions. The box templates come in red & blue, red & green and silver & gold.

Each box has a number on it that corresponds to the Christmas countdown. On every side of a box is a Christmas-themed pattern, keeping the calendar nice and festive.

These 3D advent calendars are a unique take on a tradition and are fun for the family to take part in making together.
