Advent Calendar

Bright Ideas
 
Somehow I thought making an advent calendar would be easy...
 
 
Well it started with a whol lot of pieces as shown above and below

 
Then came to putting all the little shelf like boxes in for the treats to sit upon inside.  These right now are glued to the front of it.

 
This is now waiting to be filled with all the little goodies. 
I was surprised how easy it was to put together, with just making sure that the doors don't get glued shut.  Also another little tip is that the sides don't need any fancy little paper for them as the ribbon covers it anyhow
 
 
These are the papers I used for the sides of it.  Aren't they sweet....well they are covered now by the ribbon..lol
 
 
www.svgcuts.com is where the file for this can be found
