advent calendar made with muffin tin Here’s how to make an Advent Calendar using a Muffin Tin. I want to acknowledge the  I’m Impressed craft store in Vancouver for the idea.

I made this calendar using a mini-muffin tin with 24 tiny cups. I had something of a challenge finding the tin, but eventually found one at a supermarket.   Amazon carries this Norpro 24-Cup Heavy Duty Tin Mini Muffin Pan but they will ship only to the US.

The second tricky part could be finding the magnetic pop dots to attach the papers to the pan. EK Success makes the ones I finally located.

Here is a video tutorial showing how to make this Advent Calendar. You could also make a Count Down Calendar for any holiday or event.

I have always been a fan of folding paper particularly making paper airplanes. I started with a software called The Greatest Paper Airplanes published by Kitty Hawk. Unfortunately the software is no longer distributed today. It teaches how to fold 50 different paper airplanes. It’s a good place to start learning origami.
