This mini Christmas Countdown Chalkboard is great for small spaces or the perfect accessory for Elf of the Shelf. Use our free Countdown to Christmas SVG file to easily make your own decor.
I got this miniature chalkboard at the Dollar Tree, which makes this an inexpensive craft. You could get a chalkboard anywhere. In fact, you could get a bigger chalkboard and adjust the SVG design to fit.
Just use chalk to change the days to Christmas.
