Advent Calendars

Advent calendars. Little adventures leading up to Christmas. There's a real nostalgia to them; many of us have fond memories of opening the little doors on the days before Christmas, excited to see what prize awaits. Somehow it didn't seem to matter that the actual prizes were usually a bit rubbish - a bit of badly-formed plastic, or if we were lucky, some rather low quality chocolate in an almost-recognisable shape.

But we grew up. Well, we got older, anyway. And we mostly became less impressed with a bit of malformed plastic behind a cardboard door. But, it turns out the advent calendars grew up too! Now there are a variety of advent calendars much better suited to our more sophisticated tastes, so there are advent calendars with treats of cheese, gin, or just chocolate that's actually good. But we're not interested in those*. We want stationery. We're Cult Pens. And Diamine came to the rescue with the Inkvent Calendar, with a different ink every day. Or if you want something more varied, we've made our own stationery advent calendars, with selections sure to surprise and delight. Well, they will if you love stationery, and since you're here, you probably do.

* OK, we do love a bit of cheese. This is Devon, after all.
