10 Advent Calendars for Adults – Holiday 2021

September 15, 2021 · In: Gift Guides, Lifestyle

I know, I know – it is only September! But hear me out, the holidays will be here before we know it. Additionally, I think we could all use a head start on holiday shopping. It’s better than scrambling to get everything at once and finding that the “hot item” of the season is sold out!

I’ve done this post in the past and it has always been a big hit. So I hope you enjoy this year’s finds. Who says advent calendars are just for the kids? Don’t forget to shop sooner rather than later – these will sell fast!

No7 Beauty Wizard of Oz 12 Days in Emerald City Beauty Calendar

This definitely isn’t your traditional holiday themed advent calendar – but if you or someone you know is a beauty lover and/or a The Wizard of Oz lover, this would be perfect!

The Popcorn Factory Holiday Popcorn Advent Calendar

Yummy! Edible advent calendars are the best, especially with this unique popcorn twist. This would be great for adults, kids, or the whole family!

L’Occitane Signature Holiday Advent Calendar

Anyone else feel like this is one of the original “adult” advent calendars? Though it comes with a bigger price tag, their products are known for being top notch. PLUS right now, their Amazon store has it listed for only $74 (normally $115+).

Williams Sonoma Harry Potter Candy Advent Calendar

For all of my Harry Potter lovers! This advent calendar is filled with candies you’ve seen in your favorite books and films and have always wanted to try.

Uncommon Goods Holiday Scratch Off Advent Calendar Playlist

This is such a unique idea! The record has 25 scratch off spots, each one revealing a QR code. When you scan the QR code, your device will download a holiday song sung by an up-and-coming artist! I love that it not only helps new artists, but it is also made in the USA.

McCrea’s Handcrafted Caramels Advent Calendar

I know chocolate is typically in an advent calendar. But consider mixing things up this year with a caramel calendar! This advent calendar is made by a small business in the USA.

Palais Des Thés 24 Days of Tea Advent Calendar

For all of my tea lovers out there! This would be a great way to either start or end your day leading up to Christmas.

Harry & David Advent Cookie Calendar

A Christmas cookie calendar? Sign me up!

Hasbro Board Game Sock Advent Calendar

I think the idea of the sock advent is great, but I do feel like it is becoming overdone! However, the idea can still be fun if you find new and exciting themes, like this Hasbro one. Others that have caught my eye are this Gudetama one and this Nintendo one.

Godiva Chocolatier Holiday Gourmet Chocolate Advent Calendar


If you want to stick with a traditional chocolate advent calendar, consider indulging in the Godiva advent calendar.

I hope this inspired you for the upcoming holiday season! Be sure to sign up for my email list down below – I’ll be making another advent calendar post just for the kids that you won’t want to miss.

Cheers!

xoxo

The Summer I Went Through Fertility Treatment🤍 The Summer I Went Through Fertility Treatment🤍

No, I’m not pregnant. Yet🤞🏼
I’m finally ready to share what my world and entailed the past year or so. 

We got married in 2021 and like many couples decided to wait a few years before trying to have a baby. 2 years passed and we decided we were ready. Little did we know that would start a journey filled with heartbreak and frustration. 

A year came and went - no positive tests. So the obsession started; tracking ovulation, supplements, bloodwork. You name it - I’ve probably tried it! I went to my gynecologist and got put on a dreaded waiting list for an HSG. 5 months later no call back. So I decided to call a fertility clinic in January 2025, they saw me two days later. 

With a fabulous team of doctors, NPs, PAs, and nurses I got to where I am now. I have no diagnosis, and neither does my husband - bloodwork good, egg quality amazing, no cysts, fallopian tubes functioning, etc. On paper I’m good and still a mystery!

We opted for 3 rounds of IUI’s, all unsuccessful and traumatizing. So onto IVF. 

I’ve spent my last few weeks getting injection after injection, so much bloodwork, so many ultrasounds. And today we went do Maryland for an egg retrieval. 

This was not the summer I was imagining, but I’m so beyond thankful I was able to have this journey (and also get most of it paid by insurance😉). So now we wait on our 17 mature eggs🙏🏼 

I will likely keep my embryo transfer journey private until I have a confirmed pregnancy. But getting all of this off my chest I feel comfortable to post and share again🫶🏼

If you are going through an infertility journey - whether it’s been short or long. I pray for you. I grieve for you. I am you! My heart breaks for you.

Unhelpful and hurtful comments will be deleted. 🚫“just relax!” “get drunk” “it’ll happen when you least expect it!”🚫 

A special thank you to my handful of friends who have been my angels on earth this year. You know who you are✨
