Begin a new family tradition of a Countdown to Christmas with the Chalk Couture ChalkMade Christmas Countdown Kit. Complete the kit together as a family for a future Family Heirloom cherished by all.

Imagine the excitement of the kids and grandkids when the favorite Christmas Countdown keepsake is displayed, marking the beginning of the most magical time of the year. The entire family will build family memories to keep in their heart for many years.

The tiny wreath is magnetic and includes a tiny magnet to use on the back of the box frame, making it very easy to move it around to each date as Christmas nears.

One of our awesome #ChalkSisters shares this completed Countdown to Christmas.  I love that our Chalk Family is so sharing!

Bring it out every single year for a memory-building piece your whole family will love. The wreath is magnetic, with a tiny magnet to use on the back of the box frame, so you can move it around the calendar each day Christmas draws closer. The kit includes everything you’ll need to create your version of this advent calendar.

Another lovely example by one of my awesome #ChalkSisters. The backside of the frame is decorated with another one of our reusable transfers.

Secret Elf or Secret Santa?

Secret Elf or Secret Santa? It is that time of the year when we draw names for a fun gift exchange with coworkers, sorority sisters, or maybe even family members.  No matter what you call your gifting festivities, there is always plenty of fun to be had. (Be sure to check out your free Secret Elf Gift at the bottom of the page.)

I have participated in many secret sister swaps that lasted for the entire month of December where “little surprises” were left for the recipient on multiple days. That can be fun, but it also can make a dent in your pocketbook. To be honest, being creative for several days a week kind of wears me out. (no… I am NOT a Mrs. Scrooge… just not always as creative in that respect)

How does YOUR Secret Elf Gift Exchange roll?

The Secret Elf or Secret Santa exchanges that I prefer begin with a questionnaire being filled out by all participants. After being sealed up in envelopes. each of us draws one of the envelopes. Personally, I like having suggestions from my Secret Elf recipient, especially if they are not a DIY enthusiast or crafter. (‘cuz you KNOW I have that crafty gal covered, right?)

This seems like a great time to add that I can sure help you with the crafters on YOUR list!!! (shameless plug here)
