2009 Calendar Favorites

In the course of research for the Calendarling project that Betsy & I collaborated on I have now been exposed to SO MANY incredible calendars I can barely stand it. I seriously want to line my hallway with my favorites. I think after designing one myself I have a new found appreciation for the talent that goes into putting one of these time-marking lovelies out there.

Such as the letterpress design perfection of another artist collaboration between Ink & Wit and Pistachio Press. If I was forced to chose a top favorite, this would be it:


A close runner up would be another graphically inclined calendar after my own black-line-drawing-lover-heart - The Jardin Calendar by Magnolia and Moonlight:


And then of course there is the 2009 edition of the same artist calendar that I coveted last year - The Creative Thursday Calendar:

I, too, have a special fondness for calendars. I love looking at them, flipping through them, and choosing the one that will be MINE for the whole year. I also have a fondness for day books.
By the way, I already received mine in the mail today. I panicked for a minute, the mail lady shoved the envelope into my box and I was so scared it was bent. Fortunately it was not.
I am going to post it in my "office" and stare at the cover for the next 2 months!

Thanks Marisa! I'm honored you stopped by =)

And thanks Rachel - I'm super thrilled you like my cover design enough to stare at it for 2 months. Maybe I need to hook you up with some more art? =) Glad the mail lady didn't squish your calendar too bad!
