I get commissions for purchases made through links in this post.

We all know that this can be a busy time, filled with lists and exciting ideas along with several commitments. 

This year things are going to feel a bit different, so instead of dwelling on the things we can’t do I’ve decided to make this the year I pull out ALL my Christmas ideas to make it an extra special one!

Advent Calendar

I’m sure most people have an advent calendar of some sort. If you don’t, I found this great and simple idea on my favorite place, Pinterest. You just need construction paper, glue, garland, and a pen.
