Why Thanksgiving Is the Real Christmas Deadline This Year

Most people think about Christmas shopping the week after Thanksgiving. This year, for one specific gift, that's already too late.

The Nativity Story Magnet Set is capped at 500 sets nationwide for the 2026 season. There isn't a restock. Once they're gone, they're gone until next year.

Two dates matter

Everything about this season's run comes down to two days on the calendar.

• October 15 — order by this date and save 10% ($35.99 instead of $39.99).
• November 1 — order by this date to guarantee your set arrives before Advent begins November 29, 2026.

Why the later date still isn't December

If the goal is to actually use the set the way it's meant to be used — walking through one piece at a time across Advent — ordering after November 1 means starting the story late, or not being able to start it as a family at all this year.

A gift that arrives on December 20 is still a good gift. It just isn't an Advent gift anymore.

Your Photos. Your Moments. Your Story. We press them so they stick around.

How a 3.5-inch photo magnet becomes part of the story

Our custom photo magnets are professionally produced as 3.5-inch round keepsakes. They are big enough to actually see the faces in the picture, but small enough to belong on the refrigerator, the filing cabinet at work, or the side of a metal lamp in grandma's bedroom.

You provide the photograph. We help you make sure the resolution, the crop, and the framing honor the moment. Most people send us a phone photo or a scan of an older print, and we walk them through the rest. The keepsake itself does the work after that — quietly, every day, for years.

How to start

Email tsocustomkeepsakes@gmail.com with a short note about the photograph you want to preserve and the moment behind it. We'll respond with simple next steps — how to send the image, a brief design questionnaire, and information about custom order options.

There is no shopping cart and no checkout. Every keepsake we make begins with a conversation, because every keepsake we make is built around a story.
