How to make an Advent Calendar using Money Envelopes

Welcome to my 8 year old sons craft tutorial on how to make an Advent Calendar using money envelopes.

I usually buy the standard Christmas advent calendar, with chocolate treats for my son but this year i wanted to do something different. The cost of the standard advent calendar would have cost me £2.99. The home made advent calendar materials cost me £4.05 excluding the paints, brush and pen. O.k it cost a little more but the satisfaction on my sons face when he had finished was priceless.

Every 10 minutes he looks at the wall and smiles to himself, I love that.

I hope you enjoy and if your child creates their own advent calendar please share your images via your blog and comment below so we can come and take a look.
