I’ve been prepping for Christmas since early November. The house is decorated, most of the gifts have been purchased. It’s time to enjoy the season. I’ve created a simple Christmas advent to help guide our holiday fun and I am so excited with how it turned out.

I’ve hung it right in the entry of my home so that when my boyfriend comes over to visit we can stop by the Christmas countdown first!

  1. Download 1-25 Number SVG file and Christmas Countdown SVG file (see below). Gather supplies.
  2. Paint wood banner with acrylic paint. Set aside to dry.
  3. Upload the design to your electronic cutting machine’s design software and size appropriately. Be sure to mirror image when cutting.
  4. Feed the heat transfer vinyl into your machine. Select heat transfer vinyl on the dial or in the media menu and cut.
  5. Weed the negative space in the design.
  6. Position the design on the bags/wood, as desired, sticky side down. The design should be facing the correct way when you look at it. Press the design firmly and smooth, removing air bubbles.
  7. Heat designs using an iron or the Cricut Easy Press until adhered to the surface.
  8. Using Mod Podge add glitter to the edge of the wood banner.
  9. Optional: Adhere the felt mistletoe to the back of the banner.
  10. Thread wire and ribbon through the holes in the wood banner, use the wire to adhere banner to the top of the wire display. Tie ribbon over the top of wire.
  11. Fill individual bags with activity ideas, treats and small gifts.
  12. Adhere the individual bags to the wire frame using black and red bulldog clips.
