Paper Gift Boxes 5 Photos | Sunrise Bright Advent Garland | 503

We started making our advent garlands to make something different for our own kids at Christmas. The chocolate doors, little drawers, and felt mini stockings are cute and all but they just didn't fit with our own unique tastes. We string the boxes on ribbon, floral garlands, and light strings. The boxes are little pyramid shapes that open up like a flower. We customize the tags, but mostly they are done countdown style with the numbers going from one to the end (most are 12 day and 24 days sets, but we also do 14 day ones for Valentines and such). I love the origami, its really soothing and fun to do. I think next to the fairy wings we make the advent garlands are my favorite to make.
