What You'll Need
Before you start, make sure you have the following materials and products:
- Trading Cards: Choose your favorite trading cards from various series such as One Piece, Dragon Ball, Digimon, and more. In our online shop, you can also order Booster Bundles to have a large quantity of boosters available.
- Card Sleeves: To protect and store the cards, use Soft Sleeves, Resealable Sleeves, Toploaders, and Magnetic Card Holders.

3. Package the Cards: Place the selected cards into the envelopes or boxes and protect them with the card sleeves. Distribute the cards evenly and make sure to include particularly valuable or rare cards on special days like December 6th (St. Nicholas Day) or December 24th.
4. Decorate: Decorate your Advent calendar to your taste. Use festive designs, stickers, or other decorations to give the calendar a personal touch.
5. Additional Surprises: Alongside the cards, you can add small extras like stickers, mini-figures, or vouchers. This makes the calendar even more varied and exciting.
