Egg Carton Advent Wreath Craft

My daughter's Catholic school has been having half days for parent-teacher conferences.  Since I work, this means my daughter has been going to their quality after school program. 

They had an arts and crafts day, and she came home with this adorable little advent wreath.

It is four sections of egg carton cut off, four birthday cake candles poked into the egg carton centers, pink and purple ribbons tied to the candles and some greenery spread around the top.

This seems like it would be a great craft that is simple enough for the K-1 students, but interesting enough for older students (my 4th grader liked it!).  I can't wait to try this with my class this Advent season.
