There is something wonderfully nostalgic and sweet about Advent Calendars.

I have the fondest memories of a lovely little felt one that hung in our den. You moved the little felt ornament each day of the season to the attached tree. It culminated with a shining gold star the last day. It was a simple tradition that sparked joy.  We certainly could use a bit of that in 2020.  

My children still look forward to their advent calendars.  I was thinking this is the year to up the game especially for my girls.  

Violet and I both are coveting the Carolina Bucci and the Diptyque. Gigi would love the Sugarfina one. 

I think they also make great gifts for friends as a treat to start the season and you have your gift delivered well before the mad rush of holidays. Win – Win!

I am feverishly working on my annual Gift Guides. They are to begin this week.
