Advent Box

My friends loved the Advent Box so much we got together and started to make.....it was a great production line as you can see.....anyone fed up of matchboxes...lol.....The mini Dime bars weren't to go in them.....we ate them during production......

Do they really take that long to make that it was dark when we finished.......no, but my camera created a great effect...

Here's one my sister in law made..........it just needs chocolate....I hope Anna's likes it.... ;-) I am sure she will when it's full of Cadbury's chocolate......
