The bookmarks and boxes could be reused again next year, if you stick the boxes back with something which won’t damage them, like blu tack, masking tape (or possibly washi tape?) and then store them flat after Christmas. It is also inherently an eco friendly approach to advent calendars as there’s no shipping or plastic or metallics involved, you could even print on recycled card. This DIY Advent Calendar kit is designed for home printing, utilizing just black ink, so you should be able to print on the most basic home printer. Whether on crisp white or pastel-hued card stock, the result is a new twist on printable advent calendars. You might also like the 12 Days of Christmas set which follows on from this set.
