Get the Christmas spirit going with your very own Advent calendar! This tutorial shows you how to make a unique vintage calendar: Including name engraving, rustic cord and magical fairy lights. Your personal touch will make it a gift or a highlight in your home.
Personalise the floor:
First paint the floor in a beautiful antique green to give it a touch of vintage charm. Once the paint has dried, write the desired name on the surface. Now comes the special moment: carefully burn the name onto the floor so that it will last forever. This gives your work a personal touch and makes it unique.

To prepare the base for hanging, take the cord and tie it to two holes. You can see from the instruction picture where we have chosen to do this. The cord is not only for hanging, but also gives the advent calendar a rustic touch.
Design of the bags:
Now it's time to design. Carefully place the stencil on the bags and trace the numbers with a POSCA pen. You can then paint the numbers with your favorite craft paint or, as we did, in black. It is of course also possible to stencil the numbers directly with handicraft paint , but be careful, the paint can run under the stencil . In this case, we recommend fixing the stencil firmly to the bag with fixing spray.

Once the paint has dried, you can fill the bags with the desired contents. Then close the ribbons that are already attached to the bags by tying them at the back. For the finishing touch, tie an elegant bow from the cords and thread another cord through so that the bags can be hung up easily.
The final touch:
Now that you have hung up all the bags, it's time for the final element that brings this craft project to life: Thread the chain of light through the holes in the bottom. Once all the bags are lined up and the chain of light is fully attached to the base, you can switch on the chain of light and see the magical result of your creative efforts.

With these lovely details and your personal touch, these bags will not only only be something very special as decoration, but also as a gift or souvenir. Now you are ready to integrate these enchanting bags into your home or give them as a unique gift. Have fun making them!
