Reusable wooded Advent calendar is an easy pleasing project that is simple to do, yet can be customized over the years. Begin with your format: a flat board that is hung to the wall of 24 hooks, or a box/house format with 24 little drawers or cubbies. Prepare a wooden base either by cutting or purchasing pre-assembled wooden base, sanding all side utilities and cleaning up the dust. Draw a sketch of your plan: with a pencil, trace 24 shapes (rectangles or circles), putting them equally so as not to overlap each other. In any style of drawers, purchase or make small wooden boxes; hang in cabinets or clothespins, 24 mini hooks or glued to 24 small clothespins. Paint/stain the wood with non-toxic finishes; it should be fully dry, and the numbers are to be hand-painted or stenciled and simple pictures such as stars, trees, or snowflakes are to be added. You can apply seal with clear varnish in order to get extra durability. Infuse a heavy hanger or sawtooth hooks in the back so that it can hang on the wall. Lastly, place snacks, notes, or little activities in small envelopes/cloth bags and fill them up in drawers. It should be properly wrapped up in cloth and stored after the season as it is a lasting family tradition.
