The DIY Forest Animals advent calendar brings fox, deer, bear, hedgehog and squirrel to your wall: 24 brown paper bags, three sheets of forest animal stickers and natural wooden pegs. Every bag gets its own animal and its own number – and the result is a calendar that exists exactly once.

Neither scissors nor glue are needed. Peel the sticker off, press it onto the bag, done. Lined up on a shelf, pegged to a string or arranged in a basket, the calendar suits almost any interior because the kraft paper stays quiet and the animals bring the colour.

  • 24 brown paper bags to fill (19 x 8 x 6.5 cm)
  • 3 A4 sheets with a variety of forest animal stickers
  • 24 natural wooden pegs (45 mm)
  • Ready to use – no scissors, no glue
  • Fill it yourself, for children and adults alike
  • Designed and made by Papierdrachen

The easiest way is to lay out all 24 bags first and spread the fillings across them – that way you spot the gaps immediately. Then add the animals and the numbers. Finally fold the top of each bag over and attach a wooden peg.

The bags have a folded base and stand on their own. If you prefer them hanging, run a string across the room and clip them up with the same pegs – the calendar then doubles as Christmas decoration.

  • Place the animal in the middle of the bag and the number beside it, otherwise the number covers the face.
  • Distribute the numbers deliberately out of order – the daily hunt is part of the ritual.
  • Flat fillings such as vouchers, stickers or tea bags keep the bags slim if you intend to hang them.
  • The wooden pegs stay useful after advent, for instance to hang photos on a line.

Does the calendar come filled?
No, the bags arrive empty. You decide what goes in each day.

Do I need scissors or glue?
No. The stickers are peeled off and pressed straight onto the bags.

How big are the bags?
19 x 8 x 6.5 cm with a standing base – enough for chocolate, small figures, jewellery or rolled-up vouchers.

Who is this calendar for?
For children who like animals, and equally for adults looking for a calm alternative to a brightly coloured ready-made calendar.
