Try www.opitec.co.uk (http://www.opitec.co.uk)
its a VERY difficult site to get round but order a catalogue!! They do all sorts of wooden blanks including 2 or 3 different typres of advents
Hope that helps

Heidi I ordered one of their catalogues after seeing your post and it came yesterday, it is fab, so much brilliant stuff in there, not sure I will order from them but (and I know how sad this sounds, especially for a Friday night!!) but loved it last night sitting there all evening looking through it with my glass of wine, felt like when you were little and went through the Argos catalogue making HUGE Christmas lists, LOL!!! Thanks for the link.:)

One thing worth noting with this company is that they don't want paying up front!!! You have 30 days from receipt of goods!! I then ring them up and pay over the phone.
Worth watching the bargains bit of the website - changes every thursday and the savings are well worth it when the things you want do come up!!
My daughter has just got her new bible - the latest argos catalogue!!!!
