Christmas Advent Countdown: 24 SVG Houses

Are you looking for a Christmas Advent Countdown Calendar to prepare for the Christmas season? I’ve put together this little village of 24 paper houses to create a unique and fun way to countdown the month of December leading up to Christmas day.

This post contains affiliate links, which means I make a small commission at no extra cost to you. See my full disclosure statement here.

These Advent Houses can be created using a Cricut or Silhouette Cameo cutting machine. The files (24 houses) are available for purchase as a digital download.

Light them up in the evening with LED lights to create a soft glow. I’ve included links to a few different LED lights that I have used under the supplies section. If selecting the LED strips, choose a white colored string so they blend in with the houses. You may need to purchase the wall plug separately and a USB power bank if you don’t have access to an outlet. While LED lights remain cool to the touch while lit, never leave lights on and unattended.

Each house is a different size. For reference, the average size house is 5 inches tall, 2.5 inches deep and 3 inches wide. The table they are displayed on in the photographs is 48 inches long.

These Christmas Advent Houses are available as a digital download SVG, DXF, EPS, PNG and PDF file formats to accommodate most cutting machines. Let me walk you through each of the house designs up close.

Cutting Machine Video Tutorials

Do you need help figuring out how to use Cricut Design Space or Silhouette Studio to create your paper Advent houses? I’ve created step by step videos in both. At this time, I can only offer tech videos for these two cutting machine types. If you are using a cutting machine other than Cricut or Silhouette, there are basically three steps to make these paper houses, create the pen lines, score lines and cut lines.
