    It looks like it is made out of cardboard, not wood. You will have to open the doors very carefully not to rip them in order to reuse next year. $57+tax is way too much for 24 tea bags when I can get 12 full boxes for this price. I’ll wait till it goes 50% off

    The calendar looks amazing! The first one I’ve seen this year made of wood. And are those containers refillable? I haven’t gotten into teas this much, but seems like it would be a great gift for a couple.
