In this episode, we explore the enchanting yet complex world of fiber advent calendars. These holiday treasures bring joy and nostalgia to makers, but they also pose challenges for small fiber businesses creating them.

I share insights on finding balance, sustainability, and profitability, plus some creative ideas for advent calendars that prioritize purpose over trend. If you’re ready to rethink the holiday craze, tune in for some valuable perspective.
