Here is a shot of the lovely Halloween countdown calendar my talented sister made for us, I wish I was as talented at cutting felt as her. She used the Potterybarn kids' one as her idea for this.
For each pocket, instead of putting in candy, I cut out a 2 inch by 2 inch piece of orange paper and put something Halloween related on it.
