Advent calendar - 2009

Okay, the first one I can only show in the packed state because it is still (yes, I know... it is already the 5th of december... *sough*) on the way... and they told me at the post office... Oh... it's a "Maxibrief" (means: big letter), that will only need two to three days to spain. They said that to me last saturday...

Lachafas advent calendar (packed)

The next two calendars are also for family members: The violett one for our parents and the long and small wrapped things for our brother.

The numbers are writte at the back of small stars made out of polymer clay (fimo) with stamps or metal pieces or gold powder or little swarowski crystals...

And....

because they belong everythere....!

A tentacle star!

Just for the real christmas feeling... ;)

The fourth calender every year (also for the fourth time this year) is a pink one for a very dear friend of mine. Just image, which colour the items of the advent calendar have... Yes, you're right! And there are a lot of people helping me through the year to find enough pink items. And we all start right in january searching for them. I will never just use the end of november for this task! Never!

Yes, the pink stars are also made out of polymer clay like the stars above.

At this stage they are not varnished. They will get a sweet gloss with an overlay of varnish...

And I forgot to make some pictures of the ones with the crystals :( But I had to finish all in time.

Maybe next year... at least there are some pictures of this year round of calendars ;)
