Christmas Crafting

Hello, one and all! It's been much quieter on this little blog than I ever intended - and for those of you who pop by each day to check for updates - thank you & sorry that there has been nothing new for a while.

One of the blogs that I love to read is written by Jessi Connolly over at Naptime Diaries. Jessi creates beautiful prints with Scripture from the Bible, and has designed the perfect advent calendar for Christmas. I purchased the downloadable version to save on international shipping, and I love it.

Before I had even printed the calendar, I knew I wanted to add a little something to the pegs to make them a bit more exciting. After seeing fabric covered pegs on Lucy's blog, I knew this was the perfect plan. So I sifted through my Christmas fabric stash, and came up with these lovely fabrics, left over from making stockings last year.

The other brilliant thing about this Advent Calendar is that they have been designed to correspond with some of the Advent Bible Studies written by the #SheReadsTruth ladies. I highly recommend these daily Bible Studies to help quiet your heart from the commercialism of Christmas, and get back to the heart of it all. Jesus.
