Matryoshka Advent Calendar (2009 Edition)

Description

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

My advent calendar was the first of its particular kind and quality here on Etsy and out there in craftista-land. Much work and thought went into it to make it the unique, creative and original product it is today: an advent calendar with genuine heirloom quality.
It first sold locally in Germany in 2007, and it went international in 2008, because so many loved it and recommended it to their friends, families and fellow bloggers (yay, you!).

Thank you for your continuing love and support - you're the best!

ABOUT THE ADVENT CALENDAR
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
You shall receive a Matryoshka Advent Calendar, consisting in 24 small pouches (appr. 3.5" x 5.1") and one large pouch, which holds them all in one place when they are not in use.

The pouches are made from natural-white, unbleached cotton. Each little pouch bears a cute matryoshka illustration and a number. I designed the illustrations, made them into transferables and brought one onto each single pouch.

The numbering goes from 1 through to 24 - counting starts on December 1 and ends on December 24, Christmas Eve.

The pouches close with a double drawstring, leaving your creativity a lot of options where to hang and decorate your advent calendar! Each little pouch is big enough to hold a little sweet treat or a small toy. Truly perpetual!

CARE INSTRUCTIONS
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
* The pouches should be washed cold, turned inside-out, ideally without rubbing them, and using only a mild detergent and NO bleach.
* Do NOT put them in the dryer.
* Dry flat, iron cold while turned inside-out.

* When not in use, store the pouches in the large one, so that there will be a happy counting-down on all the days again in the coming year!
