We have dyed an advent calendar for the past three years and never managed to keep one for ourselves. In 2019, we carefully put one aside so we could open it every day on The Gram (Instagram) and then actually use the colors. They will shortly be joining Mary Beth's scrappy blanket.
For 2019, our theme was Christmas Traditions and here are the colors we chose (from left to right):
Days 1 through 6
1 - Christmas Shopping
