Knock-Knock...

The advent period has finally arrived! And in Germany it is a big tradition to have an advent calender with 24 doors, or mini socks or so. Each day a little surprise is waiting for you and suddenly Christmas doesn't seem that far anymore.

Usually those calenders contain chocolate or other sweets and you can buy them in supermarkets. But isn't it fun to make one for a friend? I have already done a few in my life and this year I thought it's time to make one again for a very special friend of mine who is not living in Germany at the moment. Therefore she can have a bit of German "Heimat"-feeling in London.

I simply wraped up 24 little presents and put them in a box. The box was also nicely wrapped. And now my friend can enjoy every day a little surprise. Hopefully they'll all be somehow usefull for her, some may just be funny and some just pretty.


Now we can only wait for the snow to come to have the Christmas feeling around us!
