Another fab advent calendar...I prefer the greyboard or chipboard as I can’t seem to cut foam board straight despite trying many types of craft knives 😍

This is beautiful!!

[@loismcgurk3184]

I did two of the foam board ones this year and I love them! So do my grandkids!! This one is beautiful too, and I like the idea of using the grey board. (my cuts on my advent house were sometimes a bit beveled.) I so enjoy your videos and have made many of your projects. Your manor of instruction is so easy to follow! Thank you for sharing your considerable talent so generously!

[@debbiemain4061]

OMG ... That's gorgeous, can't wait to watch & make this 🎅🎄🤶 XX

STUNNING. I have made one already, but this one I will make next year. Great tutorial.

[@suewaller8447]

Absolutely beautiful Sam! What a great piece!

[@marie-helenepichardie6902]

J'adore

[@kimberleewells7421]

I love this advent calendar! I might be brave and try this project because I found the foam board intimidating, but the grey board seems more doable for me!

[@loribrigley1533]

Wonderful Advent calendar!!

[@crafthanacreations]

Another awesome make for Christmas bucket list 😍😍😍

[@annedowner3228]

Another fabulous make Sam thank you x

[@7peacefrog]

These are so cute! I like them both, but I really want to make the 1 you said was the 1 you made for you Do you also have a pattern/video for the other, yours? Thank you for sharing this

[@brendawalsh5834]

Absolutely stunning you make it look so easy. Thank you for sharing x

[@loke-art7383]

Wow, absolutely amanzing ❤️

[@sunshinelizzy1]

Ok.. this is lovely, but for clarification. 1. What type of paper did u use to make the boxes, they seem sturdy. 2. For the shelves, is it that you stuck two pieces of the grey board together for it to be firmer. Thanks in advance

[@TimTime1]

*Cool video! Thanks! I also just made an easy DIY advent calendar on my Tim Time channel. I really liked it! I look forward to when I can open my bags!🙃😀☺*

[@billsinks5025]

This is fabulous Sam, a perfect gift for your parents. You always do such a great job and I enjoy every video you put up. Lisa

[@kimmorin7847]

What did you use to drill the hole in the top corner! I absolutely love this!!

[@allisonsnell9352]

Lucky mum and dad, they are going to love this Sam. Amazing advent calender. I will look at making one each for my girls for next year. One is 18 the other 22 😂. Eldest daughter wants one that can be used every year ( she’s very eco friendly) so this will be fab. Truly amazing tutorial as always. You make the impossible a reality. Thank you xx

Love it, Do you have the measurement for this Advent Calendar?? xx

[@brendabaker4554]

Beautiful, Sam love it😊

[@jodoggett7984]

Hi, Sam! I had a question for you…what type of Collall glue do you use? I see they have with and without solvent. Also, you mention “quick grab glue”… what brand is that? I use Bearly Art glue for almost everything, but wanted to try some different types for more heavy duty projects. I love all of your projects and your instruction. Thanks for sharing all of your knowledge. 🌸💖🌸

[@MixedUpCraft]

Hello. I use the all purpose Collall glue. It dries hard on card and craft projects. The quick grab glue is called cosmic shimmer. . I do have a video on my you tube channel mixed up craft. “What really is the best glue” . It is a few years old but may help you . 😊

[@jodoggett7984]

Thanks so much for the information. I’ll definitely watch the video.

[@janineharris3601]

Omg awesome❤😊

[@debbytownsend2907]

Love it 😍

[@Bramblesmom1]

Now this one I may have a go at. The foam board one was far too complicated for me :-)/ Another fantastic make Sam xx

[@leannemitchem8865]

You made my day Sam! I was saying that my morning was really bad had a feeling it’s because there were no new videos from you and yet here you are making my day so much better. Edit: this advent is gorgeous. I really love this one. Last years as well. 😁. Thank you for sharing

[@MixedUpCraft]

Ahhh thanks Leanne, I'm glad I've made your day a little brighter 😁

[@leannemitchem8865]

Always Sam, always!

[@davelfc100]

Wow beautiful

[@darskicutler1894]

You could just use a Christmas tree sticker for the Christmas day box or even a baby Jesus in a manger sticker

[@MixedUpCraft]

The OCD me wants them all matching! 😂

[@intan691]

It's Beautiful

[@dawnwhittaker4102]

Hi Sam, came across your video of this, could I make this with white foam board? Xx

[@MixedUpCraft]

Hello yes you can . I have a tutorial on my mixed up craft channel using white foam board Hope this helps you 😊

[@dawnwhittaker4102]

@@MixedUpCraft yes thank you xx

[@coloradocreating3491]

Gorgeous Sam. This is so beautiful. Sa what is the weight of the greyboard. I live in US and need to find. You did an amazing job this is awesome. Thank you. Raquel

[@MixedUpCraft]

Thank you 😀 I’ve linked the greyboard below the video, if you click on it you can see all the info on it.

[@Diamond20]

inches or centimeters?

[@karenwilliams3311]

Holy cow this is amazing. Good luck to all you intrepid MUCers who will make this!

[@anonymouse74]

Me: *buys 10 pieces of a1 foam board. Sam : “I’m not using foam board anymore it’s too difficult to work with” Me “YAYYY” 😏 🤣🤣🤣 Now I don’t know whether to make this one, or the other one, or both! 😋 this one looks really neat though, and easier to make than the foam board one. And I do have some grey board left from my bureau. Decisions, decisions!
