2012 Calendar

Last week I wrote about a Magnetic Perpetual Calendar that I made for my swapmate. Today I'm super excited to share with you the calendar that I received! There is nothing better than getting snail mail. Especially when it's a surprise. An adorable little square box appeared at my door step last week with a label that I didn't recognize. Of course I instantly wondered could this be my calendar?

I anxiously waited for my husband to arrive home from work because at our house during the holiday season we can't open anything without getting the others approval. Just in case it could be a gift that was ordered and it's supposed to be a surprise. Well after the Cookie Monster cleared the package I finally got to see what was inside.

It was a calendar! A lovely desk calendar created by Cat Seto. Each month is printed on 100% recycled paper and is held in place by a wood block holder made of reclaimed lumber. This wood block also has a special spot carved out for a pencil. It truly is a wonderful calendar that is a piece of art. Another awesome feature about this calendar is that I can mail the used pages back to the studio where they will recycle them and give me a discount on the newest calendar.

I adore the illustrations for each month!

Do you have a calendar for the new year yet? If you love this one you can purchase one for yourself on Esty by clicking here. Next year you'll have to join in on the Calendar Swapping fun hosted by Design Crush.

A BIG to my calendar swapmate for sending such a lovely calendar!
