Advent calendars are special calendars used to count down the days of Advent, the 23 days before Christmas, and this unique take on the classic Xmas item draws inspiration from The Nutcracker. Shaped like a jewelry box, the Meri-Meri Nutcracker Charm Bracelet Advent Calendar has 23 compartments corresponding to the days from December 2 to December 25, each containing a cute charm to add to the bracelet over the course of the season. All 23 charms are elements related to The Nutcracker and the Christmas season. There's even a couple of figures (the soldier and the fairy) from the story that pop up when you open the lid. With its pastel colors and cute design, the Meri-Meri Nutcracker Charm Bracelet Advent Calendar is at once a charming household item, fashion accessory, and a trip back to your childhood and the Christmases of old.
