Christmas · for your partner
Advent Calendar for Boyfriend or Girlfriend
A wooden advent calendar that lives in one link. Hide a note, a photo, or a tiny date idea behind every door. They can only open one a day, in their own time zone. On Christmas morning the big door opens and every little door flips into a tree made of your photos.
How the doors unlock
- One door opens each day at midnight where they live, not where you live.
- Missed a few days? Old doors stay open, so they can catch up anytime.
- Locked doors give a little wiggle. No peeking until the date.
- You can open every door while you're making it, and preview any date before you send.
Make it in four steps
- Add your names and one or two photos of you together.
- Pick 24 days, the 12 Days of Christmas, or a 7-day countdown, and their time zone.
- Fill each door with a note, a photo, or a small mission for that night.
- Write the Christmas morning note, choose music, and send one link.
Ideas for behind the doors
Watch Home Alone tonight. Blankets, popcorn, phones in the other room.
Call me at 9 tonight. I just want to hear you laugh.
Questions
- When does each door unlock?
- Each door unlocks at midnight in the time zone you choose for your partner. Door 1 opens on December 1 in the 24-day mode, December 13 for the 12 Days of Christmas, and December 18 for the 7-day countdown. The big door opens on December 25.
- What if they forget to open a door?
- Nothing is lost. Past doors stay unlocked, so they can catch up on any day they missed, even after Christmas.
- Can I check the calendar before sending it?
- Yes. While editing, every door is open for you, and you can switch to their view on any date to see exactly what they'll see that day.
- What goes behind the doors?
- Each door can hold a short note, a photo, or a little task like a date idea for that night. On Christmas Day the doors flip and arrange into a tree made from your photos together.
