Get ready for the countdown to Christmas with this great tree shaped advent calender. The wooden advent comes blank so you can decorate it in any way that you choose, from patterned papers to glitter, it's a great project for getting all members of the family involved with. Fill each drawer with sweet treats and craft supplies or even cryptic messages, revealing a location as to where an extra special treat might be hidden. Let's get making!
