The most fun way to restock your stash

If pretty pens and paper spark joy in your heart, treat yourself or a loved one to one of the best stationery advent calendars for 2022.

Opening up a new treat every morning in the run-up to Christmas is an institution almost as important as the big day itself at this point, and we've found a variety of advent calendars to enjoy, stuffed with everything from luxe beauty bits to tasty foodie finds. But if a fresh notebook or a box of new pencils sparks joy for you especially, it's these picks that you'll be most interested in.

There are plenty of advent calendar options out there for stationery lovers, from luxury personalised options to those designed especially for kids, including a Harry Potter stationery advent calendar that fans of the books will love. We reckon the stationery treats behind these doors beat little chocolates every time.

From Paperchase's popular offering to chic buys from independent brands, here are the best stationery advent calendars available to order online for Christmas 2022.

No stationery advent calendar round-up would be complete without a Paperchase mention – and this year’s offering is BIG. Measuring 70cm high, the ubiquitous stationery brand’s 2022 calendar is stuffed with £100 worth of products, including a variety of notebooks, pens, pencils, a gift voucher and more. You'll also be in with the chance to win £200 to spend in store. Stationery and savings? Yes please.

This one's a little cheaper than the one above, again with a choice of either a 12 or 24 day calendar. Inside you'll find a range of stickers, kits, sticky notes, a notepad and a pen and pencil. Not everything is Christmas-themed, so you will be able to use your stash throughout the whole year.

We think this one is so joyful and beautifully wrapped – it would almost be a shame to open it. Inside there is a selection of large and small gifts; washi tapes, stickers, a planner and notebook, all in new designs for 2022.

There's a 12 day option as well, at just under half the price.

This offering from Martha Brook is simply gorgeous – a real piece of luxury. The lid of each calendar, along with some of the presents inside, is personalised and a gift wrapping service is available – so it makes a lovely gift too. It is quite pricy, but it contains a varied assortment of high-quality items including a personalised notebook, writing notecard set, luxury pens, a gold envelope opener and an assortment of paper goods, along with some other treats too. Everything is very thoughtful and opening each envelope is a real treat. Grab one now as these are always popular.

Pretty stationery brand my Cole Studio has released its first 12 day stationery advent calendar, packed with stationery bits, washi tape and stickers, for 2022. Act fast if you're tempted – there are just nine left in stock.

One of the more expensive selections on the list, but there are plenty of gorgeous pieces to enjoy inside – all beautifully hand-wrapped in appropriately stationery-themed paper.

There are three calendars to choose from here – 12 or 24 day and a deluxe option for an extra £6 (which gets you an extra sticker book). Mac & Grey has created some new designs for its 2022 offerings, which are full of stationery and pretty foiled pieces. This one is sticker-heavy.

Kids love Smiggle, so treat your little one to something super-exciting on the run-up to Christmas. The Smiggle advent calendar comes with 25 limited edition stationery supplies perfect for stocking up your new pencil case.

Another kids’ favourite, Tinc has put together an exciting calendar for 2022 packed with 24 toys, jokes and stationery bits. You won’t find any of the goodies anywhere else.

One for Harry Potter fans, this Hogwarts-themed calendar includes 24 magical stationery items including playing cards, notebooks, pencils, erasers, gadget decals and even a wand-shaped pen.

If your New Year's resolutions are forever to get more organised, this one will excite you. This stationery calendar contains everything you need to get your post-lockdown life sorted, including four of the brand's organising kits, some stickers, along with some washi tape and planner charms and clips, pen loops and planner pockets. No excuse for forgetting your appointment now!
