Christmas Advent Calendars

Thoughtful and Unique Advent Calendars

The advent calendar collection that we offer serves as a wonderful alternative to the usual fare. These aren't merely calendars, they're exceptional experiences that make the recipient feel special. Each one is designed, personalised, and hand-finished in our Sussex workshop, guaranteeing that every calendar is as unique as the person receiving it.

Our Personalised Couples Reusable Activity Advent Calendar delivers a new Christmas experience each year. This thoughtfully designed calendar encourages couples to reconnect during the festive season through meaningful activities. Each day reveals a new activity prompt, from creating personalised Christmas Cards to planning romantic indoor picnics or outdoor winter walks together.

For families wanting to instil the joy of giving in their children, our Countdown To Christmas Personalised Children's Christmas Calendar is all about teaching kindness. Acts of kindness are planned in advance as part of the calendar, allowing children to understand that Christmas is about more than just receiving gifts. The beautiful artwork features a wintry wonderland with personalised ice sculptures of Santa, snowmen, and reindeer to perfectly complement our range of Personalised Christmas Decorations.

Novelty Advent Calendars: Fun and Unexpected

Occasionally, the most substantial presents come bundled in unexpected packages. And our collectible advent calendars turn what has long been seen as a stale countdown to Christmas on its head, proving that a meaningful advent calendar doesn't need to follow traditional expectations.

The Reverse Christmas Advent Calendar Reusable accepts the traditional concept, but turns it upside down in the most aesthetically pleasing way possible. Instead of offering a daily gift, this calendar lets the user accumulate items to give away to those in need as part of their Christmas celebration. This act of giving during the holiday season appeals to many people who view it as a way to bring even more meaning to their observance of Christmas.

Our 24 Days Of Gratitude Christmas Advent Calendar is all about encouraging daily reflection and appreciation. This calendar promises daily surprises just like its traditional counterpart but has the added benefit of promoting gratitude. The 24 Days of Gratitude Advent Calendar recognises that many people appreciate mindfulness and personal growth during the festive season. We feel that this creative calendar provides a structured way to cultivate gratitude this Christmas.

Advent Calendars for Couples, Kids and Families

Christmas has always been a time for connecting with others, and our family-centred calendars capture this concept beautifully. The Personalised Couples Reusable Activity Advent Calendar allows partners to come together when the holiday season starts feeling too rushed and scheduled. Activities like 'Make your favourite meal together' and 'Create a Christmas playlist' prompt couples to reconnect with one another during this special time.

These calendars are especially effective as they're constructed to be eco-friendly and long-lasting. So, instead of being items that are used once and then discarded, they become integrated into your family's Christmas rituals and accrue more significance as each year passes.

Our countdown calendars designed for families with children help to not only build anticipation for the big day, but also teach incredibly important lessons about kindness and generosity. This year's Kindness Countdown Calendar proves that Christmas is about much more than receiving gifts, making it the perfect pairing for our thoughtfully curated selection of Christmas Gifts.

Advent Calendars for Other Occasions

We understand that momentous countdowns are not just reserved for Christmas. Our Personalised Ramadan Acts of Kindness Reusable Calendar—another eco-friendly calendar that serves as a delightful translation of the advent calendar concept to an occasion of similar significance. With 30 acts of kindness on offer, this countdown helps families and individuals make meaningful moments out of the observance of this holy month.

The joy that daily meaningful activities can bring is a wonderful addition to any time of year that's set aside for reflection or celebration. It's the perfect way to lay the foundation for a new tradition if you are looking for Christmas advent alternatives.

Creating Lasting Memories

What makes our advent calendars unique is the way they present experiences rather than material items. In a society where we're being told to buy more (and in a world where we're often overwhelmed by possessions!) these calendars offer something more valuable: quality time, connection, and purpose.

Every calendar is finished with beautiful elements that make them ideal for gifting. They include charming, hand-illustrated cards and special gift bags that make the act of giving the present feel as thoughtful as the gift itself.

At Ellie Ellie, we're passionate about bringing people together during all of life's moments, and our advent calendar collection perfectly embodies this philosophy. These are not simply calendars; they are invitations to take a moment, connect, and create the very memories that make the holiday season special.
