Christmas Project: Baby Sock Advent Calendar

How cute is this? An Advent calendar made from baby socks! This is a super way to re-use all those miniature socks that inevitably become "lonely soldiers" after the very first wash. Wouldn't they be cute with little candies or tiny presents tucked inside? Using self-adhesive number stickers on the cuffs and teeny little clothespins to hold them to a ribbon, the kids could pull down one sock a day from December first and count down until Christmas eve. That way, advent is sure to fly by!
