Creative advent calendars and charitable projects for the holiday season

Various organizations and retailers are highlighting creative ways to celebrate the upcoming holiday season through advent calendars.

Creative Depot, an online shop, is offering a range of materials for DIY advent calendars, including die-cut templates, winter-themed design paper, festive stamp sets, and decorative accents such as velvet ribbons and embossing powders. These supplies are intended for creating personalized advent calendars, Nikolaus surprises, and Christmas gift packaging.

In celebration of its 20th anniversary, the Inner Wheel Club (IWC) Soltau-Walsrode has released a special jubilee advent calendar. Designed by artist Eberhard Hückstädt, the cover features a large-scale depiction of Santa Claus. Proceeds from the sale of the calendar support charitable causes, and purchasers are eligible for a chance to win one of 96 prizes.
