Abstract: A holiday countdown device used to keep track of the days preceding a holiday or special event. The device is constructed from an elongated piece of fabric, having a top portion, a bottom portion, and a middle portion. An overlay extends down the length of the piece of fabric, with a plurality of ribbons attached to the overlay in a straight column. Each ribbon has a midpoint stitched to the overlay and two unattached halves. The number of ribbons on the device constitute the number of days in the countdown. The ribbons are tied around a treat, and as each day elapses, the uppermost ribbon is untied and the treat is released.
