*note: a friend of mine gave me vinyl lettering for both the title and the numbers. assorted christmas trickets (dollar store) mod podge and sponge brush (sponge brush from dollar store) number board (you can download my printable further down in the post) something to drill a hole through the cookie sheet a small cookie sheet (i purchased mine at a dollar store) it really doesn’t take that long (mostly just drying time), and most of the items needed can be purchased at dollar stores. Since i made this a few years ago, i don’t have a step-by-step tutorial, but it is just so darling, i’ll attempt to show you just how easy and inexpensive it is to make. Needless to say, i am so excited to start this countdown to christmas (starting december 1)! my kids will have so much fun putting up a trinket-a-day and seeing for themselves just how close christmas is getting! not to mention it just looks so darn cute as a christmas decoration! It appears we need a countdown to december. so now “when will it be december?!” also gets asked many times a day. My son asks me a hundred times a day, “how many more days until christmas?!” i tell him that it’s getting closer, but that it’s not even december yet.
