Christmas in a Minute – Make a Mason Jar Advent Calendar
Make this unique mason jar advent calendar to count down the days until Christmas.
There’s nothing more exciting than anticipation.
Counting down the days.
Something to look forward to.
There’s also nothing as exciting as a simple project …
one that takes just minutes to create.
What are the odds that I happen to have 24 new blue mason jars?
It’s fate … the perfect amount to make the world’s cutest advent calendar.
All wrapped up in candy cane bakers twine and stars …
just waiting for the 24 day countdown until we hear hoof steps on the roof.
My girls will rush to see what awaits them every morning before they start their hectic days.
Candy, a note, a fun outing …
something to look forward to.
Or you could put candles in each jar – light one every night during the countdown to Christmas until you have 24 lit on Christmas eve.
Here’s to creating memories that our kids will never forget.
Oh Kelly…you are the clever and creative one…what a fantastic idea and your girls must love to see each day what great things you have left for them!….
I love this!! I would like candy in mine please. 🙂 And red wine.
How cute and what a fun idea! i’ve never done an advent other than a calendar that you opened a new ‘window’ each day. Lvoe the look of the jars!
Kelly, this is such a cute idea! My boys would love this and considering every year, I think about doing an advent calendar only to end up resorting to those “cheapest chocolate ever” calendars! And I have the ball jars already…score! 😉
What a fun idea! I always LOVE a mason jar! Life to the full! Melissa @ DaisyMaeBelle

This is a really cute idea and who doesn’t love the blue mason jars and candy canes!

You’re such a cool and creative Mom, Kelly! Love this idea and how pretty the red and blue are together. I’m sure your girls are more than ready to start removing candy canes or seeing that their other goodie is! Happy Thanksgiving!
This is too cute! I love the blue jars. You are too awesome!
This is so dadgummed cute, what a great way to make use of those blue ball jars. Will be lots of fun for your kids to find out what the surprise is everyday. Happy Thanksgiving
This is adorable!! Love the idea of a candle each day too 🙂
What a super cute idea!!!
Such a fun idea Kelly! Love this countdown to the 25th. xo Jenna
I love the idea of lighting an additional candle each night during December. This is a fun idea and also very pretty!
