some of those interested in following along with our advent readings have expressed fear and trepidation when it comes to crafting the ornaments. so i thought it would be helpful for me to include a post that shows what each ornament looks like. i promise, they are very simple! most are made from felt and yarn that we already had on hand. others are ornaments we already had or some we've picked up over the years with the advent tree in mind. i think the quainter they are, the cuter they are! my favorite is the rainbow coat!
however, if crafting is not your thing, i also think it would be fun to have each child draw a picture of each bible story and then at the end staple it all together and you have a cute picture flip book from advent!
and don't feel like you have to have all 25 ornaments ready to go on december 1. our first year doing this found me making the first half and then finishing out the last half as i had time. make it fun!
so happy to celebrate this time with my family and with you!
