Crafty Calendars
While preparing my 2009 schedule, I've been contemplating the purchase of a new desk calendar and pocket planner. I always keep a calendar near my work area and each year, I make it a goal of mine to find a well crafted, graphic design based calendar. Sometimes I'm able to find one locally, though I'm not always so lucky. This year, I'm realizing I have more options. After doing a thorough search at Etsy, I've put together a dozen or so calendar favorites. See them below:
Local to Minnesota: HoneyBee Design
My favorite: Paper & Inkling (Paper & Inkling blog)
A wall calendar, though beautiful none the less: Nella Designs
Again, local to Minnesota: Michelle Brusegaard
Folksy & Fun: The Paper Princess (Online Shop here)
Be sure to check out the cool custom stamps while visiting this online shop.
This stamp is perfect for labeling layouts: Custom Scrapped
Clean & Modern: Green Chair Press (Online Shop here)
**Class Update: Soon, I'll begin working on the "Holiday Cheer" & "Golden Harvest" class projects. Pictures of those projects will go up on my blog mid-completion. You will also be able to find pictures of the projects at Scrapbook Oasis's blog. A newsletter will follow along with detailed information for purchasing class kits. Kits will not be sold until December/January. A waiting list is already in order. If interested in being added to the list, please email me. Quantities are limited. Thanks!
I love this post! I have been looking for a good calendar for next year! I really liked one of the Paper Source ones...but some of these are even better!

Thank you so much for posting the beautiful calendars and their links, you wonderful enabler you. I couldn't stop myself from purchasing the Nella Designs one. I'm telling myself that I'll give it away as a gift, but I'm not sure I can resist keeping it.
