Advent x3

December 1st and what a lovely surprise I had this morning!

My wonderful daughter had set up the most fabulous advent calendar for me and it brought tears to my eyes.

Just look at what she made - my very own Advent Forest...


each tree has a surprise inside.

She also made her Dad a North Pole Fishing Hole
He's an avid fisherman hence the fishing theme



this one requires him to fish for the correct number each day so with his recent experience of fishing, he may not be getting many chocolates!

I opted for the Wilton Tins advent for Imogen this year but feel quite disappointed with myself when I see what her imagination has come up with at age 13.






She seemed very happy with it when she walked into the kitchen this morning though.

  1. I think Imogen's done you both proud - VERY clever advent ideas. I'm pinning that forest to copy sometime!

    Love the tins on the classy fridge though - I'm sure she won't be at all disappointed!
