animal felt advent calendar

Description

This calendar is made out of different felt. An owl, an ox, a pig, an elefant, a sheep and a pinguin. The numbers are embroidered on. The shapes are little pouches to hold little surprises!
I will have different shapes and colors available!
Here is a little story about the advent calendar.

The origins of the Advent calendar come from German Lutherans who, at least as early as the beginning of the 19th century, would count the days of Advent physically. Often this meant simply drawing a chalk line on the door each day, beginning on December 1. Some families had more elaborate means of making the days, such as lighting a new candle (perhaps the genesis of today's Advent wreath) or hanging a little religious picture on the wall each day.
The first known Advent calendar was handmade in 1851. The calendar developed over the years from just 24 pictures to 24 little doors which can be filled with little surprises, as the kids count down the days to Christmas.

A percentage of my proceeds will go to the organisation "Smile Train". An organisation who trains doctors in developing countrys to perform surgery on cleft lips and palates. A big issue for social life in those countries. I want those kids to have the same chance my daughter has.
