Congratulations to Angela and Gary&Heather for winning the necklaces!

[@graceing4290]

I know right so beautiful

[@meredith5585]

When you put on both necklaces: Harry caught the golden snitch!!

[@Aggrollro]

The squared off ones are so you can separated the charms and have space in between the dangles so they look nicer!

[@ThePotterCollector]

Thanks! That makes a lot of sense! It would have been easier to show off the charms at the end if I knew that. :D NEXT TIME!

[@lazyhomebody1356]

@@ThePotterCollector Gosh Peter it's like you didn't have a charm bracelet when you were a kid!

[@dstreift]

Yes! They are specifically called spacer beads 😊

[@BunnyBonanza1]

I think the trunk is definitely nicer than last year's advent calendar. However, the button badges really cheapen everything for me. I wouldn't spend my money on them. Curious to see the next ones!

[@ambergerber5162]

Yeah the button badges seem like an after thought.

[@abrilflores1888]

The square little clasps are charm spacers!! They’re pretty useful to avoid that they fall every time you take the bracelet off or if just want to put your charms in little “sections”🤣

[@ThePotterCollector]

Good to know... and now I know! Thank you! :D

[@abrilflores1888]

@@ThePotterCollector loving this series!!❤️ it is for sure making me excited for the holidays🎅🏼

[@ananyamandal966]

I was thinking the same.

[@marinagornostayeva2428]

As much as I love the beautiful keychains and bookmarks, I think that the bracelet with the charms was a better idea overall. Sure, you get smaller items, but on the other hand you don't get so many button badges, which are honestly so disappointing. Maybe they are meant for the youngest family members so that they can get something to wear from the calendar, but if it is an individual present for an older person (which the jewelry theme suggests), this person might not be happy with these button badges. So yes, I prefer the bracelet, it looks really pretty when it is complete.

[@ThePotterCollector]

I agree about the button badges. It definitely feels like filler to me too.

[@sodorflubbs5000]

Why would this be aimed at an older person just because it’s jewellery? Children love to wear jewellery too. Also although you don’t like them there are other people who like pin badges. I would love to get the button badges too

[@marinagornostayeva2428]

@@sodorflubbs5000 I meant very young children for whom small jewelry items and pins may still be a choking hazard (and very easy to lose) but who nevertheless want to have their own small present from the calendar. Not pre-teens and teens who I'm sure would love these jewelry items. Also I think pin badges are perfectly OK for any age (just a matter of taste), I just think the price point is too high to have so many of them in a calendar like this (I mean the 2020 one, this year's one is just fine).

[@troyhelgeson4181]

I have mixed feelings on this one. The charms and keychains are really cool but the cheapness of the button badges and some similar repetitive items bring it down for me. Still might be worth it for the keychains though.

[@LetsWIN.]

I definitely now confirm that if Peter became an animagus, he'll be a nifler ✌😆

[@janetbowersox83]

Agree!

[@Blue666LV]

The trunk is definitely the better value ... I really detest the "chibi/funko" illustrastions :( Thanks so much for sharing!! :)

[@shamancarmichael5305]

I think both calendars skirt the edge of being worth the cost, but for bracelet fans I think that one has more useable options. Dangling charms can also be worn on the chain necklace! Not a fan of the button badges fillers either.

[@HeatherZapalac2009]

Lost my mom in 2016 and she loved Christmas and the holidays, She was always the Christmas Elf. Loved it. I love everything about it. It brings me joy

[@slbukosky]

I lost my mom four weeks ago and your comment really struck me. My mother loved Christmas as well, and always loved sharing in my joy from the Harry Potter universe. Happy Christmas to you and your mom's memory from me.

[@thebookworm9640]

I lost my grandmother and all though she wasn't the Christmas elf we would always spend Christmas with her cause none of my other family members come out to see us. And it's been almost 2 years sence I lost her in 2019 on Christmas eve due to cancer. I hope you enjoy Christmas and my you have a happy New Year. May we meet again.

[@mariecarlier2300]

I cannot, for the life of me understand, how this magical person does not get more views :') These videos are so perfect!

[@ThePotterCollector]

You are so kind! 💚

[@Me-ph1xw]

Yeah like these are the best videos

[@marionforgeot5832]

More when other youtubers seem to have randomly decided to do a HP advent calendars this week too...

[@cindysmith7916]

I just happened to run across your videos and have now subscribed. I had no idea these things like the advent calendars were even out there. I am loving your videos. Even a 62 year old loves Harry Potter. Thank you.

[@daisyhendry]

I bought my advent calendar last week and wish I saw this first 😩😩😩

[@gabrielleduplessis7388]

I love the trunk. The charms and bracelet remind me of Pandora’s. I believe the price is worth it because of the quality of the items and the fact you can reuse it and display it every year. It is just too pricey for me which stinks.

[@eleanorashworth]

Thank you so much Peter for leaving the links for these calendars! I can’t wait for tomorrow’s video for a new calendar! I love hp and watching your vids builds my collection!

[@CrunchyASMR84]

I really love the time turner charm as well. It’s really cute! I love Christmas time as well, my favorite Holiday for sure! Thanks for sharing what’s in them for us to decide

[@reductostupefy]

I like the time turner as well but I also like the deathly hallows charm too. I agree, the sorting hat keychain is probably my favorite item.

[@FreakyCreepyHorror]

I would prefer the trunk. It would be so cool to add all those charms one by one to the bracelet. The time-turner and the love potion were my favourite. I love your background, it helps to get in the christmas spirit!

[@stinemork3345]

Love that you have wrapped all the calendars, so it's almost an advent calendar full of advent calendars😂🤩

[@ThePotterCollector]

😄😄😄 Indeed it is!

[@kellyatkinson2985]

Loving this advent calendar series. It really helps when choosing my own advent calendar this year so thank you for this Peter.

[@david1b333]

Been following you since almost the beginning and you have always brought a joy to everything you review. Can't wait to see the other calendars.

[@ThePotterCollector]

Awesome! Thank you! I love that you've been part of The Potter Collector community for so long! :D

[@seekingcelestialgrace]

I love Christmas - especially a Harry Potter Christmas! I get to go home for Christmas for the first time in three years (I'm Canadian but I live in France) and I'm SO excited to celebrate with family :)

[@marygreene4027]

The train charm is cute. Allvery nice and i think someone wouldlove this. But my favourite is the little pins or earrings

[@jjibble]

i’ve always wanted to buy a HP jewelry advent calendar but they’re usually too expensive for me :”)

[@ThePotterCollector]

These are different price points. Hopefully you are able to get one of them for your collection. :)

[@vanesaloveshogwarts9871]

I've really enjoyed watching you open Harry Potter Advent calendars. My favorite little charm definitely is the love potion and so far I loved all the advent calendars u opened.

[@catarinasbarreto1]

I loved the trunk - reusable as an advent calendar and many more things. I’m a fan of badges and stationary but for that yesterday’s advent calendar was a bliss

[@esatterlee69]

I definitely loved the trunk advant calendar more. I loved the beautiful charms for the bracelet.

[@christinaotter]

Ooooh this was cool too. I agree the time turner was cool. It was my favourite too. The key chains are super cool too.

[@cynthiazhang]

The time-turner charm is definitely my favorite! The little jewels makes it pop!

[@sparkasaurusdonna]

First box: My favorite charm is they last Hogwarts in gold with the gemstones, but I'd also like to have that sorting hat "bead". From the second box, I love the 9 3/4 key chain.

[@JennaDanelle]

These are fun, The non dangle charms are actually spacer beads to put between the charms the dangle so they are spaced out more on the bracelet. Great videos!

[@jackie8357]

Omg perfect timing I actually have time to enjoy some coffee and some Potter gifts! I like the trunk itself on this box - if I knew an adamant jewelry enthusiast this would be great. I like the like the Hogwarts express and the night sky one. Hugh didn't know you could exchange clasps - never seen that before! I do like the time turner pin a lot as well.

[@ThePotterCollector]

I am learning from others that the extra clasps are actually spacers! Genius! Hope you enjoyed the video and coffee!

[@jackie8357]

@@ThePotterCollector ohh haha I had no idea!

[@daurophi]

those charms look pretty similar with pandora x harry potter collection but still great to see other options! love them ❤️

[@lucycongreave]

Loving the ones you’ve unboxed so far. I’m in uk so it’s nice to see what’s available in the US. I’ve opted for the Harry Potter pop advent calendar for this year.

[@saralance8424]

I liked the time turner charm best and ALL the keychains! The golden snitch necklace is great too!

[@Shirito_Kun7]

My favourites are the time turner,platform 9¾,and the love potion charm it was fragical and awesome

[@biancaandaerin796]

I love Christmas because I get to spend time with my family

[@gingermuse523]

FYI those metal buttom pins make great tie & scarf pins. The key chains make great visual locators for your luggage bags that you have to check at the airport.

[@Hayda-tj3qu]

Oh - I love both of them and they’re so different. The keychains are beautiful. Nice video. Thanks 🙏🏼😁

I love the time turner and my favourite character is Dumbledore and the fox . from Karthik 🧙‍♂️🪄

@@LadyMcCrystal I'm not sure. I haven't worn it yet. It does say it's silver plated so I would be careful.

Every video is such a joy to watch even though I thought the items in these advent calenders were great I felt they were repetitive at times but keep up the fantastic work Peter ⚡🪄

[@butrflyangel02]

The bracelet you were first opening is like a pandora bracelet so that clasp you opened can go anywhere inbetween the charms, the same with that round one with expelliarmus on it.

[@axeljavier0704]

The trunk version is more creative and I like the fact that it's reusable. The jewelry definitely calls out to me so I could go for that if I had the budget for it. The standard version is easier on the pocket, is nice, and the collector in me wants those keychains and pin badges.
