  2. I saw this project over on the HA blog as well and thought then that it was outstanding. Feeling the same way seeing it again today.I remember when I was little just using a Calendar that opened with chocolate treats beneath each tab, but this is so much more fun. It drawer can hold an actual small toy which can be a great surprise. Love what Lisa did here and so happy for the chance to win some Hero Arts goodies. Thanks so much for sharing today and for the chance to win. Hugs.
