Advent Calendar

This year, while unpacking the Christmas decorations, I decided to put this vintage German advent Calendar on the refrigerator door and count down the days until Christmas. Tucked behind each little door is a sweet picture.

Mostly animals, sometimes a toy soldier, a little bird house or candy cane, it's a simple pleasure from a simpler time.

And hidden behind the door for today was this colorful teapot. Just perfect!
