So, I made my own version of it!
It only cost about $14 and 4 hours to make, and I loved every minute of it - especially those when the boys were either asleep or playing with their daddy!As if the satisfaction of being creative and crafty wasn't already enough, you should have seen Malachi's excitement when I explained to him how it all works! Now I just have to fill in the rest of the empty pockets!

You are so talented, Erin. I love the advent tree. Someday when your kids are older you will wonder how you got all that stuff done with two kids under your feet.
So, can I pay you for one of those? For real?! How crafty!
malachi looks like blake in that pic! wow! great and amazing job on the advent tree! pottery barn is much too expensive but with a little craftiness you can make just about anything they sell! it looks great!
Heidi-you are so right. Malachi does look like Blake in that pic!
Erin,
You need to post instructions on how you did your advent tree. Or sell a pattern! It looks awesome!
I was one of the suckers who bought the Pottery Barn version. You are better than me.
It is a hit at our house. We put a little mouse in it this year to move from pocket to pocket. Much easier than finding something to fill each pocket.
GREAT idea, Heather! I may have to try that next year!
