I’m sure we all remember being kids and the excitement of counting down the days until Christmas arrived. I’m not sure how I ever survived waiting for December 25 to arrive! To make the process a little bit more enjoyable, you can make a Christmas Countdown Sign or Advent Calendar. The idea is just to count down the days until Christmas, but it can also be filled with little fun activities for kids like hanging Christmas-themed treats, toys, and cards. DIY advent calendars are the perfect way to keep track of the days left until the big day is here.

Over the years, I have made lots of different Christmas Countdown Signs, so I decided to round them all up into one big collections. These countdown calendars are easy to make and will make your countdown to Christmas so much more fun! All of these countdown projects are made using a personal cutting machine like a Cricut. If you don’t have one of these machines, you can either cut out the designs by hand or order precut decals online.  I hope you enjoy this collection of Christmas countdown signs and advent calendars I’ve made over the years!
