DIY Advent Calendar

DIY Adventskalender

Every year again: December is getting closer and the anticipation of a beautiful and contemplative Christmas season is growing. The Advent calendar is a must. If you want to sweeten the pre-Christmas period for friends, family or your partner with little messages in the morning, you have come to the right place! Why always buy the same chocolate Advent calendar in the supermarket when we can make one for our loved ones? And all without the plastic waste. This year we want to get creative with a mindfulness Advent calendar that you can design yourself. The DIY calendar is a lovely gesture and designed with your personal touch. And the best thing: you don't have to be a crafting pro for your Advent calendar project and with your CARRY Bottle you have the perfect way to convey your messages.

Bring joy with words

We fill it with little messages for a good start to the day. Anything that pleases and that the recipient would be happy about is allowed. For those of you who are already in the depths of pre-Christmas stress, we have also prepared a pre-filled template with little messages for 24 doors.

What you need:

  • One CARRY Bottle
  • Scissors
  • Paper (We want to craft sustainably and use recycled paper)
  • Printer
  • The CARRY Advent Calendar Template
  • Pens
  • A string or pretty ribbons to tie the messages
  • Decoration: If you want, you can, for example, get a bow around the bottle neck and stickers for the individual doors

Directions:

  1. Here you can find the calendar template for downloadin different colors, filled with our ideas or ready for your own messages.
  2. Simply print, cut out, label and decorate.
  3. The individual pieces of paper are now rolled up and a bow is tied around the rolls to hold them together.
  4. Next, you should mix the messages together so that the order of the doors is a surprise.
  5. Fill everything into the CARRY Bottle and screw the lid on. Then tie a nice loop around the neck of the CARRY Bottle.
  6. And your mindfulness advent calendar is ready! 🎉
