Welcome the new year with 2009 calendars

December 19, 2008 by Jenni · Leave a Comment 

Tick tock tick tock… that’s the sound of 2009 approaching. You know what that means? Time for new calendars and datebooks! We told you last month about all the Moleskine datebooks we have in stock, but have we mentioned the calendars yet? No, we haven’t. So let’s take care of that right quick. Consider these beauties Hammerpress. Big artful prints are letterpress-printed on earthy chipboard, with a small calendar mounted on the bottom. Three designs are available, including this green and black balloon (which is also featured today on design*sponge, so it must be hot).
Also in the impressive letterpress department, we have limited-edition calendars by local artist Richard Stephens, featuring linoleum prints of sights from St. Louis Park. Each one is signed and numbered by the artist. Either of these calendars make a lovely gift for the letterpress fanatic in your life – gives them a treat to look at for at least 365 days, plus they’re suitalble for framing when the year is through. Seems like every stationery company in the world (uh, except for us) made a calendar this year, and it was hard for us to decide which ones to get. We loved (and have already sold out of) Page Stationery’s very simple little calendar. But we still have a couple of the giant Snow and Graham wall calendars left, which incorporate their signature graphics and makes a beautiful accessory to any home or office. If you’re interested in a table-top model, we’ve got Night Owl Paper Goods’ wooden calendar, and a couple of funky Japanese calendars.
