Arrives with you

  • I ordered this for my sister and then spent a week trying to talk myself out of keeping it. The books are properly bound, not little blocks with a printed spine.

    Hannah R.

  • I assumed the covers would be printed card and the inside would be blank. They open, and there is real text on the pages.

    Priya M.

  • Twenty five ornaments by Christmas Day, and a bookcase to put them back in for next year. It is the only advent calendar I have kept.

    What is inside

    A carved miniature bookcase with a glass fronted door. Open it and the whole inside is a grid of twenty five numbered drawers, five across and five down.

    Each drawer holds one tiny hardback, wrapped and waiting. Open one a day from the first of December.

    menu_book

    The books

    They are proper little books, not blocks with a spine printed on the side. Real covers, real board, and real pages that turn.

    Each one is around six centimetres tall, so a single book sits in your palm and the whole set fits in one hand.

    After Christmas

    Every book has a thin gold cord through the corner, so once it is opened it goes straight on the tree.

    By Christmas Day you have twenty five ornaments and a bookcase to keep them in until next December.

    The two editions

    Midwinter Teal has sea green drawers. Firelight Red has deep green drawers.

    The same twenty five books are inside either one, so pick the case you want to keep.

    Three mini book ornaments hanging from a Christmas tree branch by gold cords

    Twenty five ornaments by Christmas Day

    Every book comes on a gold cord. Open one a day, hang it on the tree, and by the twenty fifth the tree is full of them.

    Then they go back in the bookcase until next December.

    What readers say

    • Sprigbound Midwinter Teal advent calendar on a kitchen worktop

      The best two minutes of my morning

      I open one with my coffee before work. Peter Pan turned up last week and I ended up reading the first chapter standing at the counter. I did not think a book that small would stop me like that.

      Rosie K.

    • Sprigbound Midwinter Teal advent calendar beside a lamp in the evening

      The pages are real, I checked

      I half expected blank pages or printed nonsense inside. I read one right through under a lamp last night, about twenty minutes start to finish. My husband has taken two of them already.

      Danielle S.

    • Sprigbound Midwinter Teal advent calendar open on a bookshelf showing 25 numbered drawers

      A different cover behind every door

      Every drawer has its own book with its own cover design and none of them repeat. Alice in Wonderland came out of one of the top drawers. The little bows on the drawer fronts are a nicer touch than they look online.

      Amara T.

    • Worth it for the packaging alone

      Opened the door and actually said oh out loud. The drawers are tight and neat and the numbers are properly printed, not stickers.

      Marcus D.

    • Worth the wait, but it was a wait

      Took a little under three weeks to arrive, so order early if it is a gift. The calendar itself is better than I expected.

      Tom B.

    • My book club fought over it

      Brought it along as a talking point and left with three people asking where I got it. The covers are lovely.

      Sophie L.

    • Smaller than I pictured, in a good way

      They are genuinely tiny. A whole book sits inside a matchbox. Much more delicate than I expected.

      Grace H.

    • Lovely, one drawer stiff

      One drawer needed a firm pull the first time and then loosened up. Still the nicest thing I have bought this Christmas.

      Nadia K.

    • Replaced our chocolate one

      We have done a chocolate calendar every year and it is gone by January. This one we will still have when the kids are grown.

      Questions, answered

      local_shipping

      Will it arrive in time to start on 1 December?

      We take 2 to 5 days to pack, then 5 to 21 days in transit, so allow 1 to 4 weeks.

      A calendar has to be with you by 1 December to be any use, so order by 1 November to be certain of opening door one on time. If you have a date in mind, email us before you order and we will tell you honestly whether it will make it.

      menu_book

      Do the books have real pages?

      Yes. Each one is a small hardback with a printed cover, board covers and pages that turn. They are around six centimetres tall, so a whole book sits in your palm.

      palette

      What is the difference between the two editions?

      Only the case. Midwinter Teal has sea green drawers, Firelight Red has deep green drawers. The same twenty five books are inside either one.

      redeem

      Is it a good gift?

      It is the one advent calendar that is still there in January. Twenty five ornaments on the tree by Christmas Day, and a bookcase to keep them in until next year. It arrives in a printed gift carton.
