This was a super fun project to work on- it all started because of the chocolate - as do most good ideas. I spotted these Ghirardelli chocolates at Costco and knew I had to find a use for them. Then came the Designed Decor Red Magnetic Chalkboard. I set the chocolates down on the board and played around with them until I figure out what I wanted to create. (there were lots of other thing I should have been doing at that point.) But the end result was an Advent calendar.
The "case" for the chocolate is from the Cricut Artise Collection. It is a mini book cover but I took out the hole in Cricut Craft Room. The full recipe for the project is posted at the bottom.
Here are the close up pictures.
I hope you have enjoyed this stop on the Christmas Decor Blog Hop! Chris
