Advent Calendar Plans

The count down will start in 2 weeks!  I have been planning on our Advent Calendar.
I guess this year we're back to basics.  I am looking for a nice vintage one with the prettiest pictures ever.  Or then ....  ... this above would be a GREAT idea!  Have one hanging on the kitchen wall, and in front of it have some goodies and glögg stuff (we always start drinking glögg on the 1st advent).

When I was a child we used to have only paper calendars,  and I was so happy just to get a new p i c t u r e every morning! :)  Above is the one I remember loving the most.  This type of calendar I always bought for my daughter when she was little.
Then a bit later came those chocolate ones  - and chocolate was usually not so good in them. I wonder why it still tasted better than ever! 
Then for few years we had the kind with small bags, and I remember buying little gifts inside.  My daughter loved it!
But I'm still looking for some ideas... And I found some here, here and here.
We shall see what I come up with.
