Ah, the twenty-four. The finale, to which we often have (too high) expectations. Still unimaginative? Here are my final DIY Advent calendar recommendations to bring joy to your loved one.

Are you putting together an advent calendar for someone? Then you'll get a round of applause from me first. I'm sure your patience, effort and creativity will be deeply appreciated!

If you've ever tried your hand at a project like this, you'll know that ideas can quickly become a scarce commodity. Especially towards the last «door». And especially if it's a calendar with small gifts. Because let's be honest: we don't really need anything. That's why, in my opinion, homemade gifts are hard to beat. But if you're in a hurry, meaningful gadgets or ideas for leisure activities are called for. So if you're still floating around for the last little door: Here are my 24 ideas for the grand finale.

As a massive Disney fan, I see the world through rose-tinted glasses. I worship series from the 90s and consider mermaids a religion. When I’m not dancing in glitter rain, I’m either hanging out at pyjama parties or sitting at my make-up table. P.S. I love you, bacon, garlic and onions.
