Happy 4th of July and Merry Christmas?

This sounds crazy, but hear me out. Now is the time to consider what you'd like for Christmas. It's madness, I know, but many advent boxes are being released for preorder now and will be sold out by the time you put up the tree and catch a whiff of gingerbread and peppermint.

There are plenty of advent boxes on offer, but here are a few for those who like surprises that are not of the "out of stock" variety, here goes.

Sally Tomato has a box for touristy bag-enthusiasts. Remember to add the code EARLYADVENT and to order it separately from other items. 


The calendar I have purchased for the last two years and most enjoyed is Stitch Supply Company's Advent Calendar. The 2026 Calendar will go on sale Tuesday, July 14 after the 7pm CST live.

Missouri Star has a substantial box of individually wrapped gifts with some high quality items. I purchased Jenny's Countdown to Christmas the last couple years. The 2026 box is priced at $209.95.

New to the lineup is the Lizzy House x Pink Door Fabrics 2026 Advent Calendar, with Babie dream closet vibes. It's a splurge at $275, but is giving me serious FOMO.
