Xmas Advent - part 2

I have sewed all of the squares and I already hadsewed the numbers on the squares.
The numbers I found them on the web. I google it and wrote "number to color" or "coloring numbers". I chose those which had few curves and that were simpler to pass into the seethrough paper and afterwards to the fabric.
As a base fabric, I'll use "sarapilheira" that I had at home. My husband suggested that I place the squares in a tree shape, to give a Xmas look...
The next step will be to sew behind a thick fabric and the squares on the sides and bottom, so that they will be placed as pockets.
We will fill the pockets with small ornaments to afterwards put in our Xmas tree, chocolats and gifts.
The son will open everyday the pockets.
I was thinking in closing the pockets or with buttons or with velcro tape. I still have to figure out which will be more practical.
As for now, the "pockets" are placed like this only with pins.
