    Gorgeous crafts!! It’s funny- my daughter got a chocolate in the shape of a mushroom in her advent calendar and asked what mushrooms have to do with Christmas – and now I find a mushroom ornament here! – I had to Google and found plenty of references to mushrooms and Christmas!! Who knew!
    Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas!

There's something extra special about counting dow There's something extra special about counting down to Christmas with little handmade surprises. 🎄✨

In today's reel, I'm transforming the Sugar Totes into a festive advent calendar using simple self-cover buttons and heat transfer vinyl numbers.

Here's how I made them:

 🎁 Cover 22mm metal self-cover buttons with natural linen
 🎁 Cut numbers from black heat transfer vinyl (Arial Rounded MT Bold, 42pt)
 🎁 Make the buttons first, then carefully apply the numbers using an iron on medium heat
 🎁 Attach the numbered buttons to the totes

The Sugar Totes are the perfect size for little treats, chocolates, notes, sewing goodies or other small surprises to open each day in the lead-up to Christmas.

Best of all, the Sugar Totes are included in the Christmas Cheer Bundle, packed full of festive sewing projects. Sugar Totes are exclusive to the bundle and not available elsewhere.

⏰ The bundle closes 10 November, so don't miss out!
