Kirk & Bradley – Toy Store Advent Calendar

Kirk & Bradley has designed this delightful & fun Toy Advent Calendar.  The canvas is finished with magnets behind the windows so the smaller canvases will be held in place making them interactive and fun to have out during the holiday season.

The smaller canvases are wonderful travel projects and can be stitched with stash threads.  The larger canvas is beautiful painted.  Once this project is finished it will become a favorite family heirloom.

For more information regarding this canvas please call or send an email to the shop.
