Dice Calendar FAQ

Message from the Maker

It's that time of year again and I'm so excited to finally get to talk about my dice advent calendars! This is a huge project I undertake each year, working behind the scenes to make exciting and unique collections of dice.

All of this takes me the full year to to conceptualize, organize and create. I wont lie, it's almost torture not to be able to talk about them until they're done. But I'm nearly ready now so lets dive into some info on my 2025 dice calendars!

Below you'll find the answers to some frequently asked question as well as some photos of previous years calendars.

What is a dice advent calendar?

A traditional advent calendar is meant to count down the days until Christmas, opening one box a day to find a little treat in each. My dice calendars are much the same but instead of chocolates or toys, you'll find a collection of dice! I have both 24 day collections and 12 day collections.

What's in them?

My dice calendars are filled with artisan dice carefully designed around a theme and color scheme.

Each of the 24 day boxes features 3 full sets (2 standard or mostly standard shaped sets and one fully alternate shaped set). Plus a unique set of 3d6.

The 12 day calendars have one full standard shaped set. Two 25mm d20s and a unique set of 3d6.

I’ve bought dice from you before, should I be worried about getting duplicates from these?

Nope! This year I'm doing something a little different. I've worked on all new designs, variants and pours for this years advent calendars. That means the dice in these calendars have never been sold in my shop so no need to worry about getting duplicates.

How much are they and how is that calculated?

My dice calendar costs are based around the dice inside + packaging which I design and put together myself! I focus on aesthetic and many small additions that make opening the box an adventure in itself as well :)

The 24 day calendars will be $540
The 12 day calendars will be $360

If they're meant for Dec, why release them so early?

The short answer is, I release them early so they have plenty of time to reach their destination especially for any international orders. I also aim to beat the holiday shipping rush. These are a large undertaking and not easily replaced or refunded so I prefer to get them in the mail before the holiday craziness bogs down the mail system.

but also you can use them to count down really any occasion you want to build anticipation for!

With the uncertainty of tariffs, how will that affect international orders?

The honest answer is I dont know. As a US based maker the rules seem to change on a daily basis and it's hard to keep up to date with wtf is going on. For now I am still offering most international shipping, but I cant say what kinds of taxes may be passed to buyers in different areas. So please know, if you are outside of the US, there may be of additional costs from your local carriers.

What are this years themes?

Below you can find this years themes, along with a description (that has a few small hints at what is in each box), their cost and how many I will have available. I've also added the mood board I put together and worked off of for each!
