So, while thumbing through an older issue of Maryjane Farm magazine,,, I came up with an idea based on what was on page 21 in the 2019 Apr/May issue.
I am thinking of making a Christmas Advent Tea calendar...

Super easy.. cut out a circle from cardboard, then wrap with holiday gift wrap or fabric and paint 24 clothes pins in a Christmas/holiday color.
Let dry.. with a paint stick or black marker write 1-24 on the clothes pins, then with Tacky glue or glue gun, attach the clothes pins to the wreath... Use a piece of ribbon to hang the holiday tea advent calendar wreath.
Clip on the tea bags and viola' a big girl Advent Calendar.
Ah, just think, every day I can use my tea advent calendar and feel special.
Now to go find some cardboard and dig through my tea stash!

I love this idea! I do like tea, don't get me wrong, but I think this would really be fun if it was hot cocoa instead of tea. I wonder how many different kinds of cocoa I could find.....

Agree, Heather. I like tea, but hot cocoa would be very nice.

Grace, this is a great idea! I like the hot chocolate idea as well. It would be cool if you could find 24 different ones to sample. I wonder if there is a sample box of some kind out there.

Grace, that assortment looks delicious! I’m tempted to buy me a pack to try! If I recall correctly, I received one of those land o lakes from another Farmgirl here last year and it was delicious!

I've had the mint and raspberry ones from Land o Lakes and they are delicious! I wouldn't be afraid to try it if you were thinking about it.
