Zipper Pouch DIY Advent Calendar Tutorial

November 12, 2022 by Anne Weaver

Zipper Pouch DIY Advent Calendar Tutorial

Create a fun and unique Advent calendar for your kids!  This zipper pouch Advent calendar is made up of 24 triangle zipper pouches.  You can hang them from a garland or on a Christmas tree, or just pile them all in a pretty bowl.  The tutorial includes three sizes of pouches – 2.5″, 3.5″, and 4.5″ – to fit different sizes of Advent treats.  You can find the tutorial over at Bombshell Bling.

Advent calendars are an enjoyable method for children to count down the days until Christmas. And because each day is a charming tiny zip pouch, this triangular zip pouch Advent calendar is even more entertaining. Every night, kids will enjoy unzipping the bag to find a small goodie (or two) inside!

Easy Cosmetics Bag Sewing Pattern

The bag is simple, uses very little fabric (about 2/3rds of a fat quarter), has no fussy inside pockets (although you can add your own if you like), and takes me well less than 30 minutes to print the pattern, cut out and sew. But quick and simple doesn’t mean it’s not awesome!

It’s the sort of bag that is versatile enough to be used for lots of applications, not just cosmetics and toiletries. Keep all your pens and pencils in order, use it for a small first aid kit for the car, keep it in your desk at work for a few headache pills and other personal supplies.

Make some for yourself, for gifts or to sell.
