25 Days of Christmas 2015 Edition

It's that time of year again! While we're busy trying to keep up some normalcy with filling orders, homeschool, and new baby, the 25 days of Christmas waits for no one.  This year we're back at it again with our favorite crafts, events, and sweet treats. Check out our previous posts for some great event and craft ideas or movie ideas to create your own 25 days.  

We've done something new each year to make the 25 days advent a little more exciting than just a plain list on the calendar. We've made some little trees, a punch cup tree, and toilet paper twist poppers. But this year I decided to make something a little more simple. 

After doing a little research about writing on black paper, I found these Sakura Metallic Gel Pens that worked amazingly! I also purchased the plain white gel pens as well. The rest was pretty simple, black card stock, red envelopes, and a little heavy duty tin foil for the belt buckle.

It was fun to try out the new gel pens and create something original for this holiday season. We can't wait to get started on our tradition and make more memories! How do you celebrate your holiday season? What traditions do you have to make your holidays memorable?  

Pin it for later!
