Has anyone bought a set of drawers with numbers? Can be cardboard or wood. I am just I overwhelmed with choice and want to make my own this year. Thanking you!!

Can't recommend hobby craft, we have a snowman with the wee drawers and they fall out all the time with the slightest movement.

I had one but the drawers were too tiny to fit anything in so I gave up on it in the end, it got stressful trying to find sweets to fit!

Aldi and Matalan usually do some nice ones ☺️

I got this one from Amazon last year (although it was cheaper then). It’s great - decent sized drawers that easily fit sweets for two in and can also squeeze in toys/Lego blind bags etc. Really sturdy as well and cheerful!

We bought one from Lakeland years ago that is still going strong.

We have the Hobbycraft Christmas tree. I painted it in festive greens & Reds and bought little stars to stick on each drawer. I painted the numbers on the stars.

We have one with drawers but bought it more for a decoration than the calendar bit.

The drawers are tiny, I would say a Lindt chocolate ball, the tiny Christmas ones, goes in it.

So double-check the size of the drawers before buying.

We have this one from a couple of years back and put a rolled up note in with where to find the prize or what the activity was for this day
