Thanks for watching! Don't forget to like and subscribe to our channel! And if you want to make this Advent Calendar yourself, the instructions are as follows...

You'll need:

- 25 toilet paper rolls
- a hot glue gun and hot glue sticks
- card
- polyester fiber
- your printer and paper

Here's how:

First, print out the numbers 1 to 24 in six rows on a sheet of letter paper.

On the back of the paper, glue an upright toilet paper roll over every number.

Cut out the numbers with the toilet rolls attached.

Cut away the corners of the paper, so that the edges are flush with the cardboard tubes.

Fill every tube with candy.

Cut three pieces of card, one to form the back of the calendar and two to form the roof.

The first piece should be the size of a sheet of letter paper. Stick the tubes of candy to the card in six rows.

Make the roof from the other two pieces of card. The width of the larger piece should be equal to the length of one toilet paper roll, and once it's folded to form two sides of a triangle, you should be able to fit four rolls next to each other in the opening of the triangle.

To make the roof, first fold the larger piece of card in half. Next, stick the cardboard triangle into the fold.

Cut the bottom off the last toilet roll at an angle. Stuff some polyester fiber in the top and then stick it to the roof as a chimney.

Stick the roof on top of the top row of toilet paper rolls and you're done! Feel free to paint and decorate it however you like, and even mix up the numbers. It's your project, so make it your own.
