He guys! So it isn't our traditional advent season just yet but I figured we could so some spooky season advent unboxings! So far we have another Etsy advent and a marshmallow advent planned! Let me know if you would like to see more spooky season boxes! Love ya💖
Liquid smoke is what they use for bacon flavor in anything the smoke is what makes it bacon although they could have a little salt Crystal Lake I believe was the camp for Jason
So you know lemon scent can affect your dogs. My dogs reacted within 30 minutes of being around a natural lemon diffuser I bought. They were acting weird like it gave them neurological problems. I had to call the vet, get them out of the house and air the house out. Lemon isn’t a good scent for puppies. Especially if they are have a history of seizures. A lot of scents even if natural aren’t good for our sweet puppies.
If a small business on Etsy can pull off a phenomenal advent box like this it really shows that these other large companies have no excuse for giving out sample sized trash in theirs! This box was awesome!!! I’m fixing to order one for my daughter, she’s turning 8 in a few days and she loves holiday themed products like that and advent calendar’s
"Dirty Pillows" was what Carrie's religious mother called her breast. That was a big joke in my family for years. This is clearly showing my age. We watched it on TV when I was like 12, I think.
While $90 seems like a lot, it breaks down to $6.92 per day. Which is a pretty good deal considering some days had multiple items. Bath and Body works is more expensive and this box is all handmade.
I completely agree and especially when you consider the vast majority of the items are things you'd spend way more money on, but add the cuteness of it all and you're looking at $10 each for the smaller ones and $15-$20 for the larger more unique ones! Lol I'd definitely get it if I had it to spare!😉🙏 4 ✌️ AlWaYs Halloween 🎃👻 is the best time of YEAR 🎈
Omg I love this! The calendar is great! Would definitely like to see more of these from Etsy sellers. Also, the Dirty Pillows is in reference to Carrie's mother talking about Carrie's girls showing in her prom dress basically saying she wasn't being modest.
OMG! You just did it. This is THE best advent unboxing EVER!!! I'm a big Halloween freak, so this was made for me. Unfortunately, it's WAY too expensive for me, but I've never seen one like this. Thank you for sharing this. Also, by the way, all through your videos, I keep looking at your sweet fur babies and watch what they're doing. They are so darn beautiful! Thanks again sweetie. You have the best unboxing award. Halloween is the BEST!!
WELL... THIS is how an advent calendar should look! This looks amazing I wonder if she does Christmas ones? I'll have to run over to her store and see soon!
90 bucks divided by 17 items comes to a bit over 5 bucks an item. Seeing that most of those things would be 7-10 bucks on their own, thats a good deal!
This is soo freaking cute!!! The attention to detail, the variety. You can tell the person who put that box together reallly loved and believed in these items.
What a fantastic box! Everything is on theme, the wrapping paper and labels are beautiful, it was well-packed to prevent breakage, and putting the body wash in a ziploc in case of leakage was just a little bit of extra-thoughtfulness. Some companies (::gives Louboutin the stink-eye::) would have counted the shampoo, conditioner, bookmark, and lip balms (lip blams??) as individual gifts, so it was nice to see that they were paired up rather than split up. Even though I personally wouldn't use a lot of the items (fragrance reactions, alas!), it really was well-curated. Of course, with Halloween being my favorite holiday I'm definitely biased in this box's favor. I'd definitely give it a 10/10, and yes would love to see some more Halloween unboxings in 2024.
These are SO cute!!! You definitely need to keep this maker in mind when considering your Christmas advent calendars this year. I love the Vampire Blood Bath idea. It's cute AND useful. :)
I think this is the only advent calendar I’ve seen that actually seems worth the price. Each item would be about $6? That’s insanely good. Especially when it’s all themed and packaged gorgeously. Good work, creator!
When conditioner says thick it typically means to thicken your hair or it is a thick product. I have never seen a conditioner for thick hair, but it could be and more then likely is thing. This was a fun box.
We have a local candle maker, and her small tins are 8 bucks a pop. But her candles are so worth it. They smell amazing and actually have a good burn time. $90 for all of that is a great deal.
Hey Alex!! I tweeted you a couple of days ago letting you know that TARGET had an advent calendar. I dont remember you doing one on the channel, maybe I missed it. Im so glad our Advent Calendar Queen is happy 😊😊😊😊
I just finished making my kids Halloween calendar:) They have a chocolate or sweet everyday - then they get a trick - forfeit, eg 10 star jumps, tidy your room etc, or a treat - i have a few bigger little surprises - slime, multi colour pens, pumpkin shaped Halloween hot choc bomb, hair pretties for my daughter, maze games, rubiks cube, multi tool pen for my son. And every day a Halloween themed joke. We're from England so it's just not as big here, although I think not getting there. We love Halloween in this house - its just so fun!
Advent calendar season has started early!!! YAY!! Bring on the October calendars! That was a fun box, especially if you love candles. It was all really nice. I did like the effort that they went into. It makes it seem worth it. We've seen some real doozies, so this was very nice.
UGH I NEEDED A GOOD VIDEO. AND YOU ALWAYS MAKE ME LAUGH. UNFORTUNATELY AT 2 AM THIS MORNING MY BEST FRIEND OF OVER 30 YRS PASSED AWAY UNEXPECTEDLY. SHE WAS ONLY 42 YRS OLD IM SO LOST HEARTBROKEN AND STILL IN SHOCK. SO THANK YOU ALEXANDRIA FOR THE VIDEO.😢😢
you definitely start at day 1! if you do count backwards the last number will be on the top of the box. chocolate calendars usually count down to christmas and 25 is at the top
I go from day 1 up because even though typically you’re counting down to Christmas you are traditionally starting 24 days out and it’s much easier to remember to open 1 on the first and 12 on the twelfth than do a reverse order countdown. With a 13 day one though I could see doing a countdown since it’s almost like “sleeps away” type thing.
I NEED this box in my life. At least that stick butter. I love stick lotions it's so much easier on me to use. Very accessable to a disable gal like me. Plus SPOOPY! This was a wonderful Advent and I would LOVE to see what other kinds of small business/Etsy hand made advents you can find and for what celebrations and stuff. That would be a cool way to share small businesses! I am going to this Etsy right away.
As soon as I heard "beep beep, Richie" it made me smile so much. And then my 2 year old said it and now I'm the proudest mama in the world. The original IT is the reason I'm scared of clowns, but I love that movie. I'm now bringing my little one into my world of horror movies
I have memories from childhood with loofah soap. My mom used loofah soap exclusively. Whenever I would take baths in her math tub I would get to use it.
What an amazing advent calendar!!!! I love it! Also IT is my favorite spooky movie. My 10 year old son just watched the original and now it's his favorite too
Palo Santo is the wood you can burn, it’s used just like sage. And used often in more masculine scents but also has a sweetness. Fig is a fruit from a Ficus tree (Moroccan and Mediterranean area).
I think the idea for the lip balm of bacon and pineapple is kinda like Hawaiian pizza and the choice since prom queen and pig blood is pineapples wear crowns and bacon IS pig. Weird for kimball But people who love pineapple on pizza really love the flavor combination so unique and fun tought process when it could just be red glitter and fruit punch scented.
This box is so fun! Looks more interesting than a LUSH box set!!!! Haha dirty pillows are ta-tas, she had a slip dress that wasn't considered modest by her mom.
This was such a good box!!! Decent sized products too and honestly for $100-ish getting 13 hand made products from a small business is kind of a good deal tho?? Still less than $10 an item for hand made goods is pretty good!! I’d love this!
Yay Advent Calendar season has started!! Woohoo!! Loved this calendar too. As someone pointed out it’s less then $7 a day and some days you got two items! Way better then a lot of Christmas Advent calendars you’ve had over the years. I love that all the items are handmade as well. Great start to the calendar season. Can’t wait to see what’s next. Love your fur babies too. They are so cute. ❤️
I thought this was an amazing advent.. box. I loved all the items, with the exception, like you, of the rose candle. Hate rose scents, love candles. I can see why they have so many great reviews. It would actually be great to buy and break up into individual gifts or when they have their xmas advent, stocking stuffers!
Always from Day 1. I have a 13 day nail polush advent calendar to open. You're supposed to start with Day one on Oct 1 and then Day 13 is for Friday, October 13th!
you said you only got one reference and the only thing I remember said in Carrie is dirty pillows so I thought it was gonna be that. I didn’t remember the other lip balm reference lol
I would love to see some etsy advent calendars at Christmas! I love supporting small business, especially when their stuff is so much better than the commercial stuff!
Oh I loved this one! Like you said it is all handmade and I feel that makes it a lot better. Soy candles are the best. I really like how every one has such a great theme. So creative. I think it is worth the $90! If I bought this I wouldn’t be disappointed at all. Good pic Alexandria ♥️
Awesome "Advent" box! Loved the lotion stick. I'm with you on rose-scented anything. I've no idea why because I love all kinds of scents...just not rose. 😊❤
Definitely agree this is a little pricey but it all feels like it is worth the price. None of the products are skimpy and they all keep with the fun of the theme. Great find! Thanks for putting it out there! ❤❤❤
He guys! So it isn't our traditional advent season just yet but I figured we could so some spooky season advent unboxings! So far we have another Etsy advent and a marshmallow advent planned! Let me know if you would like to see more spooky season boxes! Love ya💖

yesssss! i love that
I am so excited! Yes please more videos! 🎉
Dying to see more !!! ❤
Shampoo AND conditioner in the same day!?!? Sephora could never! 😂
ADVENT CALENDAR SEASON HAS BEGUN! I can feel mariah carey defrosting
🤣🤣
Lol 😂😂
Best comment right here
Yessssssss 🙌
🤣😂🤣 that’s the funniest thing I’ve heard today

You get a lot more of the dirty pillow references in the book. 😊
@@lux.illuminaughtyyes you're right!! (Huge Stephen King fan here)
I’m a big King fan so I always call them this 😂
@@lindatannockSame! Been reading his books since his first one came to the public library (Carrie). I'm old. 😂
@@WillSing4TP Nice!
While $90 seems like a lot, it breaks down to $6.92 per day. Which is a pretty good deal considering some days had multiple items. Bath and Body works is more expensive and this box is all handmade.
Love the rational! 😂😂 I feel much better now about spending the money 💰
I completely agree and especially when you consider the vast majority of the items are things you'd spend way more money on, but add the cuteness of it all and you're looking at $10 each for the smaller ones and $15-$20 for the larger more unique ones!
Lol I'd definitely get it if I had it to spare!😉🙏 4 ✌️ AlWaYs
Halloween 🎃👻 is the best time of YEAR 🎈
I’d definitely pay more for someone making it over these scammy companies!
I'd love to see the 30 day calendar!! That was an amazing advent calendar!!! Wish we had smell-a-vision!!!
Or scratch & sniff 🤭
Omg I love this! The calendar is great! Would definitely like to see more of these from Etsy sellers. Also, the Dirty Pillows is in reference to Carrie's mother talking about Carrie's girls showing in her prom dress basically saying she wasn't being modest.
if you gift the rose candle, 17:48 ask Mary to swap tops so you get the sticker you like and you’ll still gift her something cute
great idea
"But spooky season for me started for me a long time ago "... *truer words have never been spoken*
Imo, spooky season never ends. Lol
Honestly I think that this is the only advent calendar that I have seen that seems actually worth the price. Loved this one!
Anyone else rewatching old Alexandria videos for comfort while cleaning.. thanks for the videos ❤
OMG! You just did it. This is THE best advent unboxing EVER!!! I'm a big Halloween freak, so this was made for me. Unfortunately, it's WAY too expensive for me, but I've never seen one like this.

WELL... THIS is how an advent calendar should look! This looks amazing I wonder if she does Christmas ones? I'll have to run over to her store and see soon!
I can't describe how happy I was to see an advent calendar before December. I love it.
90 bucks divided by 17 items comes to a bit over 5 bucks an item. Seeing that most of those things would be 7-10 bucks on their own, thats a good deal!
This is soo freaking cute!!! The attention to detail, the variety. You can tell the person who put that box together reallly loved and believed in these items.
Dirty Pillows is a reference to the original Carrie movie - her mom calls her chest her “dirty pillows” 😂
Alexandria never has scissors on hand... but just happens to have a seam ripper?! 😂🤣 This is the best channel on RUclips 🙌
What a fantastic box! Everything is on theme, the wrapping paper and labels are beautiful, it was well-packed to prevent breakage, and putting the body wash in a ziploc in case of leakage was just a little bit of extra-thoughtfulness.

Did someone tell her the car fresher is a reference to Christine the killer car movie. Btw one of my favorites!
I think this is the only advent calendar I’ve seen that actually seems worth the price. Each item would be about $6? That’s insanely good. Especially when it’s all themed and packaged gorgeously. Good work, creator!

To answer what day to start on advent calendars start on day 1 but if it says count down you start at highest number
Alexandria Advent Season is my favorite time of the year on RUclips ❤
Her mamma called part of her body "dirty pillows" (she was wearing that low cut prom dress).
Dirty pillows is a reference to the movie Carrie!
The boys are just precious with their kerchiefs on. The Halloween calendar is awesome. Really well done. 🧡💛🎃
the loofah soap is really great i love them. just a warning when you first get to the loofah it will be scratchy but softens after a few washes.
We have a local candle maker, and her small tins are 8 bucks a pop. But her candles are so worth it. They smell amazing and actually have a good burn time. $90 for all of that is a great deal.

Beep, beep, Richie is an awesome reference to It. 😄
They all float down here.
It’s frickin’ bats! I know where you got that from! Too funny!
You have to get some little spider suits for the doggies, they are so funny! They look like huge spiders are running at you!
This was a really cool handmade Etsy box. They all look quality! ❤
This is probably my favorite advent calendar unboxing that you’ve done. Such creative items and good quality!
This was a great advent calendar!!! I think for the price you got some great stuff!! Very fun and creative, love all the Halloween references!!!
Never trust the living. 😂 I think that's a quote from Beetlejuice!
Lotion in a stick??? Yes please!!
Advent calendar season has started early!!! YAY!! Bring on the October calendars! That was a fun box, especially if you love candles. It was all really nice. I did like the effort that they went into. It makes it seem worth it. We've seen some real doozies, so this was very nice.
I very much hope that this seller does Christmas advent calendar’s because that would be lovely
UGH I NEEDED A GOOD VIDEO. AND YOU ALWAYS MAKE ME LAUGH. UNFORTUNATELY AT 2 AM THIS MORNING MY BEST FRIEND OF OVER 30 YRS PASSED AWAY UNEXPECTEDLY. SHE WAS ONLY 42 YRS OLD IM SO LOST HEARTBROKEN AND STILL IN SHOCK. SO THANK YOU ALEXANDRIA FOR THE VIDEO.😢😢
I just can’t believe how much rose stuff you get! I specifically look for it and can’t even find that much rose scented stuff!
Best advent calander of rhe year!! You watch. None of the ones for xmas will be this good!
For the car diffuser, if you really like it, you can hang it in your wardrobe hanging pole as a freshener in there.
One of my daughters would absolutely love that vampire body wash😂
you definitely start at day 1! if you do count backwards the last number will be on the top of the box. chocolate calendars usually count down to christmas and 25 is at the top
I know that was a great calendar because I want it! Kind of expensive, but like you said, for handmade items it's pretty good.
"I want Candy"🎶🎶🎶 Oh sweet childhood❤ lol I can't stop singing 😂😂😂
Give me all your rose 🌹 stuff!!!!😅😂 It’s my fave.
I go from day 1 up because even though typically you’re counting down to Christmas you are traditionally starting 24 days out and it’s much easier to remember to open 1 on the first and 12 on the twelfth than do a reverse order countdown.

Country Apple from Bath and Body was my FAVORITE!!!
Hahaha we yelled "BACON AND PINEAPPLE !!!" at the same time!!! Hahaha LOVE this advent calendars!!! YAY!!!! 👻🎃👻🎃
I have memories from childhood with loofah soap. My mom used loofah soap exclusively. Whenever I would take baths in her math tub I would get to use it.
Loofah soap is wonderful! A few uses and now uou have a loofah and soap scrub. It's great for your skin and you dont have to rinse the loofah
Wait there's Halloween advent calendars!? Ok that is awesome and I need it!
Same here! 😅
Found it!!! Side hustle serenity on Etsy, doesn’t look like they have the calendar anymore but they still have some of the Halloween items !
I don't do Halloween, but this box was really nice! I'd love to see one included from them for the Christmas advent season, too!
The shot of the boys and their bandanas killed me. Those damn scary teefs. 😂❤❤
What an amazing advent calendar!!!! I love it! Also IT is my favorite spooky movie. My 10 year old son just watched the original and now it's his favorite too
Definitely one of my favorite unboxing videos!
Super cute calendar 🎃 switch the witch lids to the sticker you like 😊
We love advent calendars! Good to see the puppers and dressed up for the season! 🖤 thank you for all you do, Allie!
Palo Santo is the wood you can burn, it’s used just like sage. And used often in more masculine scents but also has a sweetness. Fig is a fruit from a Ficus tree (Moroccan and Mediterranean area).

❤ Love the shot of The Boyz with their boo bandanas! Especially Tater with his chewy bone "cigar"! 😊
Halloween gonks, combining the best things ever!
Ive looked for one in the UK, jealous.
Aldi (or Lidl, I forget) are doing Halloween gonks with light up noses. I think they went on sale this week. 🖤
I enjoyed this calendar a lot, can’t say that about all the Christmas boxes.
omg the bandana montage is everything!
Lol. The dog cameos so cute 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
The reference is from the movie Carrie. Such a classic!
I love this calendar. Makes me wish you got the 31 items. I also think the value is there.
❤ actually a great advent calendar ❤ I hope you get a Christmas one from them ❤by far one of my favorites you have open ❤
This box is so fun! Looks more interesting than a LUSH box set!!!! Haha dirty pillows are ta-tas, she had a slip dress that wasn't considered modest by her mom.
I think this calander is the one you've enjoyed the most in the longest time.
Loved this advent calendar. This shop did an excellent job. If they do a Christmas calendar it would be awesome if you got one!
These Etsy boxes and calendars are great. They are becoming my favorites
This was such a good box!!! Decent sized products too and honestly for $100-ish getting 13 hand made products from a small business is kind of a good deal tho?? Still less than $10 an item for hand made goods is pretty good!! I’d love this!

It would actually be great to buy and break up into individual gifts or when they have their xmas advent, stocking stuffers!
Wow, this was an incredible box, wish she still had them available.
Dirty pillows is a Carrie reference, her mother calls them that when she tries on her prom dress.
The vampire blood bath body wash is incredible!! What a fun advent calendar!
Glad you did this kind of advent box. Not the scents I would have thought for the most part though.
Can we please get an update on if the flame is black?
Always from Day 1. I have a 13 day nail polush advent calendar to open. You're supposed to start with Day one on Oct 1 and then Day 13 is for Friday, October 13th!
you said you only got one reference and the only thing I remember said in Carrie is dirty pillows so I thought it was gonna be that. I didn’t remember the other lip balm reference lol
i LOVED this box, and i LOVE these "random" unboxings youve been doing!!! especially the etsy sellers! id love to see more videos like these!!!
My birthday is 13 days before Halloween, I would love an advent calendar like this 😁 spooky season has always been my favourite 🎃
Camp Crystal Lake was where Jason killed the campers in Friday the 13th. Love it
My favorite season is halloween/fall so happy you are doing calendars from this season!!
I would love to see some etsy advent calendars at Christmas! I love supporting small business, especially when their stuff is so much better than the commercial stuff!
Oh I loved this one! Like you said it is all handmade and I feel that makes it a lot better. Soy candles are the best. I really like how every one has such a great theme. So creative. I think it is worth the $90! If I bought this I wouldn’t be disappointed at all. Good pic Alexandria ♥️

Definitely agree this is a little pricey but it all feels like it is worth the price. None of the products are skimpy and they all keep with the fun of the theme. Great find! Thanks for putting it out there! ❤❤❤
Yes!!!! MORE etsy/handmade, this was sooooo fun
