Apt#6 is decked out in the holiday spirit. I made this advent calendar as a spin off from my Mom's classic calendar. Each day I add a new ornament and in the end the whole tree and manger scene will be decorated. The last addition will be on Dec 25th when I add the baby Jesus in the manger with Mary and Joseph. Actually, I'll be out of town by then, so I'm adding my pieces as I see fit. Some of the tree ornaments match the symbols in the manger scene. For example, the candy cane and the shepherd's staff and the lights with the gold are similar to the gold on the new star. I had help making this calendar. Stephanie gave me the first materials when I was in Utah and the Barlow's helped me sew the finishing touches. Everything is attached by double stick velcro so that it can be stored and washed when needed.
