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!
