Advent Project

This year I decided to make JM do a project, an advent wreath. Because ready made wreaths are not easy to find here in Thailand, we simply substituted materials that will be used in the project to anything available in the market. For the stand, we used a stoneware from home and covered it with aluminum foil. Then, we took a portion of the small sized tinsel that will be used in our Christmas tree as a substitute for the greens and twisted tiny, purple flowers in it to reflect the color of the season. The candles are all scented and were placed in crystal candle holders which I bought from a local hypermart. This project aimed at educating my son on the importance of advent.

Purple flowers signifying repentance and green tinsel for hope were chosen to decorate the advent wreath.

JM is doing the finishing touches on our advent wreath.

Our advent wreath looks so pretty and is ready to use on the four Sundays of advent.

All smiles after completing his first advent project.
