How to Create a Countdown Advent Calendar of Memories
Countdown to Christmas with... memories! Here's how to create a DIY advent calendar using Premium Prints.
Advent calendars are an exciting way to get into the holiday spirit—and for your kids, to open presents before the holidays. While you can gift them calendars with chocolates, toys and other items, you can also create an advent calendar countdown filled with family memories.
The holidays are a time of nostalgia and reflection and thanks, especially as we watch our kids grow with each year that passes (and why you have that urge to snap pictures of them dressed in their holiday gear).
And don't forget—your perfect photo moments will look great on the cover of your next subscription photo book, or Classic Photo Book.
First, grab tags (you'll need 24) in the color or style you'd like. Then, with stickers or a simple marker, add numbers one through 24 to the bottom corner of your individual tags.
If you'd like to have multi-color tags (and only bought one color), grab construction paper and cut and glue to fit the shape of your tags.
Next, take your 24 Chatbooks Premium Prints—filled with the memories you want to revisit this holiday season!—and using your tag as a guide, cut your print so it's the same size and shape as your tag.
Place your Print behind your tag, and add a closepin to attach.
Use a bulletin board (or even just a wall at home!), and decorate the back with holiday paper or add a garland for a more festive feel.
Attach horizontal ribbon or string across your board, then attach your 24 tags using the closepins.
