2011 Advent Calendar

I just finished up our 2011 Advent Calendar. I got a little behind so I started with day 5, leaving 20 paper stockings to be made, stuffed, and hung. I didn't need to buy any additional craft supplies due to my overwhelming supply of cardstock and thickers! I printed a stocking outline on each piece of cardstock, cut it out, stapled 2 stockings together (leaving the top open). I then stuffed each one. Most have candy, some have art or baking projects for us to complete that day. Others have coloring or puzzle pages. All have a verse inside. After filling each one, I glued the tops on and then carefully "hung" each on our mantle a large piece of tape (hoping that it will hold). The kids already opened their first one and seem pretty excited about the rest!
