calendars to help your life

I did receive my calendar in the mail, which has been really helpful because I framed it with the glass and used a dry erase marker to circle all my photo events. You can still buy it on sale at rifle paper co. for $10!!



I found another amazing calendar, if you are still looking, from House That Built Lars.



Also, this book Orchards, Fields and Gardens looks so beautiful. It's a collection of 21 different artists/authors who, "remember activities, people, and places that shape(d) their appreciation for small scale food production and processing."
I've been waiting for months for it to be republished and available to buy. Take a peek here to read more about it.

2010 calendars

I have been making calendar's as gifts every year, which I may do again but I need new inspiration. I sometimes prefer a calendar with drawings, like Nikki McClure's or Jill Bliss. But I did find this collection of illustrations from frankie magazine.

I love these calendars from Jill Bliss. I think her drawings are so sweet and thoughtfully articulated. It inspires me to create my own. I wish I could be so talented, or patient! Here's a calendar from a previous year that I have, or you can check out her latest at buy olympia: here.

also, another sweet photo of darling Gabriella.
