Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

The holiday countdown has begun!! 🎁  Please share your advent calendar unboxings. 😍

 

Whether you open all the doors to your calendar at once, or whether you open a box one day at time and follow the traditional schedule (e.g., 24 day unboxing beginning on 12/1 and 12-day calendar unboxing beginning 12/25).

 

For those of us who just can't wait to see what goodies are in our advent calendars and are opening all the doors/boxes at once before the end of the season, please consider hiding your unboxing post behind a spoiler tab so those who want to be surprised day by day can still do so.

@caitbird  These look so wonderful!  I am looking forward to seeing what is in the O&J Advent Calendar.  And I have never seen a stationary Advent Calendar!  Great 😊 

Re: Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

@Cissy63  thank you so much! I have been enjoying all of them so far. I think the Olive & June one is a good value for everything that you get. And I love stationery and this seemed like a good and fun way to get to try out a nice variety of items.

Re: Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

Wow look at yours @caitbird . Everything is so pretty 😍 

Re: Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

@blackkitty2014  thank you so much! I have been having lots of fun unboxing new goodies every day 😊

Re: Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

These all look so pretty, @caitbird!

@curlychiquita  thank you so much! 💜

Re: Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

Those are almost too pretty to bust open.  But really looking forward to what is inside @caitbird 

Re: Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

@CorgiMommy  I agree, I love pretty packaging so I really appreciate these!

Re: Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

The advent calendars you got are so decorative and pretty! I am excited to see what these have in store for you! Day one looks awesome! I’m a big fan of Burt’s bees as well! How neat 🙂 @caitbird 

Re: Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

@peculiarzmakeup  thank you so much! 💜

Re: Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

@caitbird, you have some amazing advent calendars! The ways the brands designed them look so fun. I'm so happy we get to unbox ours together here! 😍 

 

Oooouh, a stationary advent calendar? I have added that to my list for next year. The interior print of William Morris looks like it could be a beautiful scarf and I'm so intrigued by what the Cult Pens interior wil look like when you remove all the boxes. 

Re: Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

@itsfi  thank you so much! I'm happy so far with the advent calendars I chose this year. Last year I got the Anthropologie beauty advent calendar and I enjoyed it, but right now I have way too many beauty minis to work my way through, so decided to skip that one this year. These ones are all new to me, but I'm really enjoying unboxing them!

Re: Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

Those are beautiful calendars @caitbird The designs on your William Morris box are really neat!  The scent on your hand cream, clementine and clove? That's really unique, it sounds good! 🧡

Re: Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

@CynthieLu  thank you! Yes, I love the packaging of the William Morris advent, I love his art so I just had to pick this one up!

Diptyque Advent Calendar 

I've always wanted a Diptyque Advent Calendar but never went through with it ... until this year. Having a gift card helped to nudge me to pick it up this year.

This was a great way to kick off the advent calendar - the scent from the candle when lit is warm, slightly spicy - I pick up the cloves first; not too heavy - it's balanced out as the orange and cinnamon notes, soft but detectable, waft in and out. I'm happy with this first day unboxing. 😊

Re: Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

@itsfi That candle sounds divine, but that box omg!! Stunning. Glad you got one this year!

Re: Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

@itsfi  This advent calendar is so luxe! Just the way it is made. Wow! Glad you had the nudge this year!!! 

Re: Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

@ather, I always find the presentation of the Diptyque advent calendars to be a draw but this year's has such a charm to it. I kept thinking about it every time I saw it and passed on it. That and gift cards heped to make this one possible. 😉 

Re: Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

This is an amazing Advent Calendar @itsfi. The set up is grand.  A lovely candle to start off!

Re: Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

Thank you so much @Cissy63! I've been very pleased with this advent calendar.

Re: Advent Calendars 2024 - Let the Unboxings Begin!!

This is such a great thread! @itsfi the box is so decorative I think advent calendar’s bring such wonder and curiosity! The candle is definatley a good start! Looks amazing, what a fun adventure 🙂
