calendar criteria



it's only September and i'm already on the hunt for my 2007 wall calendar. i LOVE calendars. i consider them changeable/affordable art on my wall. above is my 2006 calendar from Graphique de France. it's of vintage fashion illustrations; the colors and expressions make me happy.

my criteria for wall calendars are:

1. colorful but not too busy

2. NOT prints of real art (if i want to see impressionistic paintings, i can go to the Met)

3. anything that could be hung in an art gallery, but isn't well known or your average "art."

4. each month has to make me feel something different. ideally something related to the respective season or holiday of that month.

5. finally, i just have to like it--like each month enough that i won't get tired of looking at it before its time is up.

so, if anyone has any leads for where to find/get such a calendar, i welcome the info. i'll let you know what i end up choosing.

  • You're just too stylin' for words, Wendy. But p.s., I like how you take the time and make the effort to do things that bring you joy. It warms my heart that my daughter takes care of herself that way.
