The holiday season is just around the corner, and what better way to count down to Christmas than with a custom digital advent calendar?

I’ve always loved the idea of advent calendars but never actually bought one—so this year, I decided to create my own! It’s zero waste, digital, affordable, and perfect for long-distance besties, couples, and families. It was so much fun to design in Figma.
