Empty Advent Calendar

24 doors. 24 surprises. All of them disappointment. Fill it yourself.

£34.99

A matte black lacquered wood advent calendar featuring the PadlockCat mascot and dates in gold. All 24 boxes are empty. Because the best surprise is you. Ideal for adults who want to control their own advent, children who deserve an early lesson in managing expectations, or as a gift for someone who already has everything they need (nothing).

Customer Reviews .

Real reviews from real people. The cat has not edited these (much).

"I filled it with 24 increasingly philosophical questions about the nature of disappointment. My family had the most interesting December of their lives. One son is now studying philosophy. The cat on the front has a lot to answer for."

"Bought this for my partner who hates surprises. He filled it himself. He knows exactly what's in each door. He is the happiest he's ever been in December. Minus one star because I don't understand him at all."

"Filled each door with a chore for the kids. December has never been so productive or so resented."

"I put a tiny affirmation behind each door. By the 24th I had become unbearable and happy."
