Step 1: The Christmas balls are painted.
First you stick a Christmas ball with the sticker with the number “1”, the second ball with the sticker with the number “2” and so until the last Christmas ball. After you have glued on all the glue, you can start painting. Our recommendation is that you change white and black color from the first to the 24th ball. The 25th ball sets you apart from the others by painting the ball with a copper-like paint. At the end, you should end up with the following:
- 12 white balls with even numbers
- 12 black balls with odd numbers
- 1 honey-sweet ball with the number “25”
Wait 30 minutes for the paint to dry.
Step 2: The Christmas balls are felt.
After the paint has dried, you can start peeling off the stickers. Let your imagination run free and feel the balls to taste. We felt our ball with sweets.
Step 3: The parts of the Advent calendar are assembled.
