The book idea is so clever! And I love the "Prepare" - so pretty.

I love it all, Cheryl!
How creative.

The books and all!
And I love, love, love Willow Tree figurines. I'm looking for one that has a father and daughter together for dh to give to oldest dd this year. I keep checking Cracker Barrell and Hallmark but they don't have any in stock yet.

'Prepare' is so simple, yet so lovely! And what a blessing to have enough books in your collection to wrap one for each day - that will be looked forward to I'm sure!

Ruth Tucker

I really love the idea of wrapping the Advent books for the kids to unrap each day. I love it!!! I'm going out today and getting purple wrapping paper. Thanks for the idea.

God bless. Ruth

Suzanne

This is beautiful, Cheryl. Thanks for the music recommendation.

KC

Lovely, just lovely. Great idea about the wrapping.

Katherine in TX

Your ideas are great and I love the wrapped books. That's a great idea.

Nina

I don't have enough to wrap for the entire advent. I'm sure the library wouldn't mind if I wrapped some of theirs! Lovely idea

Kimberlee

Everything looks so lovely! What are the letters made of?

Cheryl

I think the letters are made of pine. They were $1.79 ea at Walmart. I used double sided tape to stick scrapbook paper to them. I also bought some to spell out my 2 dds' names. My dh and I are going to paint them and give them as Christmas gifts, then we'll hang them from ribbons above their beds.

Cheryl,
What great ideas! The books in purple paper is such a good idea.. P-R-E-P-A-R-E letters are perfect, too! I listened to the clip of Advent music you linked to. Wonderful! I can understand why it is so special to you. It is so lovely.
I would like to add that I am so glad you started a blog this year. I do so enjoy visiting! God Bless you and your beautiful family.

Erin

I love the idea of wrapping our books (also have some new ones the children haven;t seen) and I also like the prepare letters.

Meredith

So beautiful, love all your special touches, especially the wrapped books, I'm inspired!! I wish you and your sweet family a blessed Advent!

Lisa

Oh, wow! LOVE this idea! Thanks!
