*Chica and Jo has done it again- with a creative use for wooden clothespins-a wreath advent calendar .I love this and I have a ton of clothespins on hand! (I wanted to make her Thanksgiving version- but ran out of time. It is really cute too.)* The Crafty Crow has a ton of great ideas from around the web - check out 2008 Advent Round-up and

There are so many great ideas out there for advents- I could spend a whole year making them ;)
