Designs Ltd 'Christmas at the Palace' Large Traditional Advent Calendar

super advent calendar. loads of detail

I buy the kids chocolate advent calendars but we like a traditional one so no chocolate, just pictures. This is a really nice one. The pictures are the kind that I used to get as a kid. So far we’ve had a stocking, mistletoe, a cracker and a Shepherd. Lovely. It brings back childhood memories of when we used to guess what was behind each door ( something we still do). The main picture itself is charming and this calendar is a really good size. I will definitely be looking out for one from this range next year. I like the nostalgia and the fact that I’m not eating chocolate for breakfast each day.

Ms. Gardiner is an accomplished artist. Her drawings are delightful and priced much > reasonably than others. Her style is refreshing and modern. I'm delighted with the final product and even ordered an Exact-O® knife as an Add-On after one reviewer noted the doors were sometimes difficult to open; that issue is not a deal breaker for me.

Very nice advent calendar. Windows are placed lovely over the picture and don‘t destroy the overall sight when open. Numbers were a bit on the small side, but we found all of them.

Bought these for my son and daughter as was fed up with the ridiculous chocolate filled ones (how does the Avengers printed on a piece of cardboard signify christmas?). These calendars are excellent quality with detail filled scenes and a real christmas feel and the best thing is that the glitter on them does not fall of (worth the 5 stars alone!). would definitely buy again.
