DIY Stocking Garland Advent Calendar

DIY Stocking Garland + Advent Calendar | Hello Glow
I am so excited to be bringing you this DIY stocking garland Advent calendar! Because we have such a small apartment, I have to keep my holiday decor to a minimum to not overwhelm our space.

This Advent calendar is perfect because it it’s bright and festive without taking up too much space.
