Advent Calendars are a cherished tradition in our family that we enjoy year after year as we count down the days till Christmas. December can be an especially busy time of the year for every family and it is important to find ways to slow down for a moment, spend time together, and enjoy this wonderful season that leads up to Christmas.

These special, puzzle-filled Advent Calendars provide a delightful surprise & festive challenge for you and your loved ones daily throughout the Advent Season, and they bring family and friends together.

How it works:

1) Choose an Advent Calendar from my selection.

2) Choose a Wentworth puzzle (1 x 250 piece puzzle, 4 x 40 piece puzzles or 1 x 500 piece puzzle) from my puzzle shop.

I will then carefully group the puzzle pieces in the little numbered drawers for each day (cca. 10-11 pieces for a 250 puzzle, 6-7 pieces for the 4 x 40 puzzles, 20-22 pieces for a 500 puzzle). The pieces in every drawer will connect with each other and with the part of the puzzle that is already put together on the previous days. The final image remains a mystery until Christmas Eve, but as the days go by the details in the picture reveal themselves piece by piece. I include a whimsy piece for most days for a fun surprise.

3) Please email me your order before November 1st if you want to make sure that I can fulfill your request, especially if you want to ship this to someone else as a gift.

4) Start the Advent Calendar Puzzle on December 1st and watch the joy it brings to your family and friends. Once a puzzle piece is on the table, everybody starts gathering around it - puzzles are people magnets!

Keep the Advent Calendar for next year and make it a family tradition!

I can supply a new set of puzzle pieces in numbered bags each year, and that way you only need to purchase the Advent Calendar once.

See the Advent Calendar prices under each calendar. The original cost of the calendar & puzzle is cheaper than buying the calendar ($125) and the refill puzzle ($85) separately. I gift the labor cost on your original purchase!

Puzzle refill prices (including puzzle & labor):

250 or 4 x 40: $85

500: $155

This is a fun adventure for kids (over age 3) and grown ups alike! Even younger children can complete a bigger and more challenging puzzle. This way the puzzle pieces are pre-selected for them daily and all is kept neatly and safely together. The kids will be so happy and proud to see their finished puzzles!

The Advent Calendar Puzzle can be made more or less challenging depending on the age/skill level of the person, so please mention it in your order who it is for.

You can decide to conceal or reveal the image at the beginning as you will be given the original puzzle box as well. I think, personally, that a lot of the fun and challenge lie in not knowing what the picture hides, but watching it all develop gradually and have the pieces come together in the end - just like reading a good story.

I am happy to accommodate special requests, so please do not hesitate to contact me with your questions and ideas.

Please email me the name of the Advent Calendar and the puzzle/ or refill puzzle you would like to purchase, so that we can arrange delivery, collection or shipment. Payment options are cash, check, Zelle or venmo. Please note that I charge a flat fee of $1.50 for packaging and handling on top of the shipping cost.

You can also purchase more varieties of the Byers' Choice Advent Calendars on Amazon and just order a refill puzzle to fill it.
