Now that Christmas is on its way, we are thinking about which empty Advent calendar boxes we will be using in our countdown for the December event. But let’s start from the beginning and explain a few things first.
What are precisely Empty Advent Calendar Boxes?
The traditional Advent calendar is the calendar used to count the days of Advent before Christmas comes.
Since Advent begins varies(usually between November 27 and December 3), many Advent calendars, especially those reusable for every year, often begin on December 1. However, those produced for a specific year usually include the last few days of November too.
Traditional advent calendars were mainly aimed at the younger population(usually kids). They contained religious pictures or chocolates, but the trend of non-traditional advents promise luxury gifts for adults and cover almost every type of product, from chocolates to alcohol, beauty products, to even candles.
All the luxury brands have already launched their advent calendars, and it seems that the trend of advent calendars is here to stay.
Empty Advent calendars are even better because, as the years go by, you can reuse them over and over again. So why are Advent calendars an excellent idea for any brand and e-commerce business?

Reasons for Empty Advent Calendar Boxes popularity
There are a variety of reasons why Advent Calendars are so popular today. Here are some of them:
- Capitalize on popularity. The non-traditional calendars are a desirable product today, so why not jump on the trend? It’s an original gift, and people love buying that kind of stuff for themselves and others. If you are looking for a way to add fun, excitement and a little surprise to your gifts for the forthcoming season, advent calendars are it. Not to mention a great way to increase your revenue and encourage people to spend their money before December
- Promoting your products to a new audience. When somebody gifts somebody else an Advent calendar, it will introduce your brand to new customers and increase sales from existing customers. The idea is to get the customer familiar and to seek you out to discover what else from products you have to offer
- 24 hours day visibility. The recipients will be reminded about your brand 24/7, in their homes or the workplace, for the whole of December. So what is not to love about that? If your packaging is interesting and fun, even better, the impact will be in full.
- #AdventCalendar. There are currently over 1.9 million hashtags for the Advent Calendar, and that trend seems to be going up every year. Every major luxury brand is launching its calendars as we speak. Your main audience is Millenials. They used to have chocolate Advent calendars as kids, and now when they are grown up. If you make your Advent calendar attractive, people will want to share it with their followers on social media, which would bring free advertising and promotion to your brand.
- The margins. With gifts like this, it’s all about perception. If you put your products in empty Advent calendar boxes, and if your package is beautiful, you can sell your gift with a much higher price point than you would otherwise charge. It is simply the power of great packaging.
Pitfalls to remember when it comes to Empty Advent Calendar Boxes
There are a few potential pitfalls you need to watch out for when it comes to selling your Advent calendars:
· Not meeting expectations. Zoella, the very popular influencer, sold her Christmas calendars for about 50 pounds, but her fans quickly pointed out that the product has low value for that kind of money. So make sure that you set the price at the realistic figure so that your customers feel that they are getting the correct value for their cash.
· goods arriving damaged. If the package or products you will put in there arrive damaged, the calendar will only hurt your brand and reputation. So make sure to use the exemplary service for the transport of the packages.
Empty Advent Calendar Boxes in all sizes
Depending on what you are selling, you can do a range of different options for your own custom Advent calendar box, from stock packaging to custom design. If this is your first year trying to get into the Advent calendars market, you might want to try and see how they sell for that first year.
These three sizes will fit the variety of products:
· Standard 24 day Advent. It is an excellent idea if the products you put into Advent calendars are smaller, and it’s ideal, for example, chocolate truffles, fudge, pralines, wax melts etc. The tray inside is usually 33x30x20mm
· New 12 day countdown Advent. If your items are high value, such as wax melts, cosmetics or jewellery, this is the right size for you. The tray inside has cavities sized at 33x30x20mm
· New Giant Advent. The tray inside has whopping holes sized at 51x59x44mm. This large tray is ideal for 40g mini jars or candle votives, with the packaging even strong enough to support 24 heavier products.
