Very Cute Advent Calendar
November 25, 2012
I purchased this advent calendar for my 3 grandchildren to start their tradition of counting down the days before Christmas! I had their family name embroidered on the front as the picture shows, only had it done in red. It really looks nice. The children are all under the age of 4, and they are very excited to begin using this. A very well made calendar that they will have for years to come!

It does the job, but...
November 18, 2012
I saw this and thought it would be really cute for the purpose I would be using it for. I will be doing an activity advent calendar with my kids where there will be a card in each pocket that has a fun Christmas related activity we will do that day. I ordered this a couple of months ago and didn't take it out of the packaging until today (my mistake) in order to start putting the cards ready. Upon first inspection I noticed it is very poorly made. It has two rips in it where stuffing is coming out and I can also see the glue where things have been glue gunned on. Since it is almost Thanksgiving and therefore almost time to start using it, I am not returning it because there will be no time to return and get a new one. If I had opened it when I originally received it, I would definitely have returned it. It will serve it's purpose, but it is very poorly made. I expect way better from the Pottery Barn name.

Adorable, but...
November 15, 2012
Adorable advent calendar! It will look great hanging with treats in the pockets and I know our boys will love it! My one concern: I think the hanging ring could be improved. It's a very thin little ring that is attached with a few loops of thin string, and it also sticks out from the top of Santa's hat. We haven't hung ours yet, but you would be able to see the ring once it's on the wall. I would like to use one of those temporary wall hangers for our calendar, so I will make another loop further down the hat so it doesn't show.

New Family Heirloom
October 12, 2012
An advent calendar was a Christmas tradition in my husband's household. Unfortunately, he didn't inherited his childhood/family's calendar...but he won't miss it now. This calendar has classic style that mixes old and new. Much more beautiful in person. We had it personalized and it looks like it always been in the family. Worth every penny.

New Traditions
October 4, 2012
I received this calendar yesterday and I have to say it is even cuter in person then online! I love the look. Some of the stitching isn't perfect (like the eyes are a little off from being in line with each other can't really tell unless you look up close) but I don't mind. I think it just adds to making it look more homemade! I can't wait to start using it this year with my son. He will be 2 1/2 in December and I look forward to using this cute Santa calendar every year as part of our new traditions! Thank you PBK!<3

Just received this and I LOVE it! So cute! Can't wait to put it up this holiday season. The kids are excited too! I did have our last name monogrammed on it and it just adds that little extra something special.

A Christmas Favorite
November 14, 2011
My two children absolutely love their Santa advent calendar with the fluffy white beard and long skinny red boots. I just pulled it out from last year and they are mesmorized. To them its more exciting than their stockings and our big beautiful tree (I know- we're early decorators). I love the quality, the aesthetics, the uniqueness, and the fact that I'm able to fit it perfecty on the wall in between their 2 bedrooms.

Fun countdown to Christmas
November 13, 2011
I just picked up this advent calendar at my local PBK store. The other advent calendars were either way too large or too expensive. This santa calendar is the perfect size to hang on a door. We're going to hang ours on the door to my daughter's room so that every morning she can move the candy cane when she wakes up. She can't wait until December arrives to start the Christmas countdown. Very cute product.

It's okay...
October 12, 2011
Online this advent calendar looked adorable. Exactly what I was looking for to match my PBK's tree skirt, stockings and Santa bags from last year. Once received, however I was very disappointed. The pockets are sewn on crooked and the threads were loose out of the package. I had it monogrammed or I would be returning and buying one of the more expensive advent calenders. I shop at PB and PBK's so I don't have to think about quality but in this case I think they need to reach out to their vendor for quality control.

I filled the little pockets with chocolates.. and my kids are loving it! Too bad you can't fit two names at the top to personalize it.

My Grand daughter just turned 4 and I gave her this as one of her gifts. She was elated. Every year I buy her a throw away advent calendar "Not anymore!" It is very well constructed. I have come to trust Pottery Barn Kids for well constructed merchandise. It gives me a sense of confidence when I make a purchase. Thank You Pottery Barn Kids!

Fantastic Advent Calendar
December 8, 2010
My 2 year old daughter absolutely loves waking up and moving the candy cane to the next number! I think it's great because she can count down the days and doesn't expect a gift each day!
