Creating the Christmas spirit in our home is always my favorite part of the season. From the flavors of the season, like peppermint and sugar cookie, to the atmosphere of tiny sparkling lights covering everything from the mantle to the tree, I just love the holiday season!
Because Addie is learning how to count backwards now (and doing a great job teaching her sister), I knew this was our year for our very own custom Christmas countdown sign, but I didn’t want just anything off the shelf. I asked my friend at Darling Decal Co. to come up with something for me that I could really make my own, and got to creating!
Choosing my font, color and then heading to Lowe’s for the perfect tile (at less than $5!), I put this sweet sign together in less than 10 minutes, and created the perfect countdown for years to come. Check it out:
What will you need to make your own?
- Head to Darling Decal Co. for the Christmas countdown and choose the custom items you want.
- At your local hardware store, choose a tile you love! I chose this granite one from Lowe’s!
- Wipe your tile down with a damp cloth to remove dust and let dry completely.
- Adhere Darling Decal Co. vinyl as directed (directions come with all purchases).
- Enjoy your countdown!

This is a great giveaway. I will have to make a custom countdown sign for my house. The kids are going to love it.

Beautiful idea for a countdown sign. I’ve wanted to do something this year, but haven’t gotten to anything but letting my son string lights around a window!
This is super fast and simple to make! I hope you get to it!!
What a cute idea! Counting down to Christmas is such a big thing with the kiddos. They’ll love this!
They really LOVE seeing the number drop, don’t they?!
I think my daughter would love this custom Christmas countdown sign. She is asking me every day how many days there are left before Christmas. This would be a great way for her to learn the numbers too!
Awww- I bet she would love it!
Our countdown sign has lost it’s number pieces. This sign will be an awesome replacement. I won’t have to worry about losing pieces anymore.
So true! I am always worried I will lose the magnets on our calendar. This has made my life SO much easier!
Omg how cute is this sign?!?!?! We so need a Christmas countdown in my house super bad!!! It would be so fun for my daughter
I hope you scoop one up for you home!
Ahhh Make this giveaway available to Canada!! LOL I love this custom diy sign.

What a fun and brilliant idea! Christmas countdown is the best fun to do with family and it would be more fun if you will make it customized!
Customizing holiday decor is so much fun!
