Last minute Advent Calendar

I did not really forget to make an Advent calendar, I just never gotten around making one, so on the 30th I realized this, and had to get creative quickly! (and this one was without Lella’s help, because then it defnitely wouldn’t have been quick;)
I used the roll of gift wrap with the stockings on, cut out 24 of them, and a big one for nr 25. Numbered them from 1 to 25, specifically two that match each other, after each other(for a bit of extra learning there).
 The idea I have is that Elfie will wear a sock each day, then Lella have to hang it up with the mini pegs. When we get to sock number 25, it is Father Christmas’, and it is Christmas.
We will see how it goes this year, maybe try another idea next year until we get something that works perfectly. Will let you know after Christmas, maybe you want to use this idea next year? Or do it today and just hang up more than one sock until you catch up…
Enjoy the countdown, whichever way you do it!
