Reader Nora at Fun to be Frugal sent me this awesome recycled advent calendar she made out of a cereal box and some holiday ads. So cute and simple! I love it. You can rummage around in your recycling bin right now and come up with the stuff to make one this weekend, just in time for December. [click here for Nora's recycled advent calendar tutorial]

Cereal box, on hand
