Whether you have just discovered us, are completing a collection you have treasured for years, or missed out on a letter last Christmas, our backdated letters are a lovely way to fill in the years gone by, so your little one can look back on a letter from Santa for every Christmas of their life.

They work just like any of our letters, with two lovely extras. You choose which letter from years past you would like, and you tell us the year to print in the top corner, so it reads exactly as though it arrived that Christmas. You can browse every design Santa has sent over the years and pick your favourite over on our past letters page.

Just like all of our letters, each one is made one at a time and personalised just for your little one, with their name woven all through the story and a magical envelope addressed to them at their very own magical address. It is finished with foil-detail postage stamps, gold foil monogrammed stationery from The Office of Santa Claus, and a gold foil thank-you sleeve, then posted to you in a plain brown rigid mailer, unsealed so you can take a peek and give it whenever the moment feels right. A keepsake to treasure for years to come.

As a little team of one (and with two little kids by my side!), every letter is lovingly made by hand, so please allow a little time for us to create it. You can find our full turnaround and shipping times here.
