2012 Calendar Round Up, Part 8

Just when I think we’re nearly done with 2012 calendar round ups, a few more amazing designs pop up! (This happens to me every year, so I really shouldn’t be surprised)  This round up features new editions of some of my favorite 2011 calendars along with a couple of first-time calendars from some of my favorite designers, so let’s take a look!

The calendars from Michelle Armas are one of my annual favorites and feature prints of her amazing paintings (which you can keep and frame later!)

Gorgeous color and floral illustrations from The House That Lars Built

 

The first ever (yay!) calendar from Mae Mae Paperie was inspired by swimming – so fun!

A simple + modern black and white calendar from Pawling

Lots and lots of color (both back and front!) in the 2012 desk calendar from Delphine

A collection of mint-colored things in this calendar from Kate’s Papergoods (she has another based on salmon color things)

A 5-color letterpress southwestern calendar from Goosedown Press – the registration in the pattern is amazing!

 

A geometric letterpress calendar from Fourth Year Studio – inspired by traditional quilt patterns

This lovely calendar from Flora Douville incorporates her watercolor illustrations (via Frolic!)

A beautiful watercolor wash and hand lettering in this 2012 calendar from Oh My Deer

Happy Friday everyone!  I hope you all had a wonderful week!  I actually managed to come down with a bit of a cold this week, so I’m planning to lie low this weekend.  Not very exciting, I know, but definitely necessary every now and then.  But in the meantime…

…a few links for your weekend!

This week on Oh So Beautiful Paper:

I’ve got an awesome cocktail recipe coming up for you a bit later this afternoon, but otherwise that’s it for me this week!  I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and I’ll see you back here on Monday! xoxo

2012 Monthly and Weekly Planner from Laurel Denise

It always happens right around this time of year – requests start pouring in for fabulous planners and organizers.  As it turns out, it’s hard to find a planner that is both functional and pretty!  For the last few years, my favorite planner has been this amazing monthly and weekly planner from Laurel Denise, and I’m thrilled to share the 2012 edition with all of you today!

Laurel’s 2012 planner comes in a variety of colors, all spiral bound and with tons of space to write out to do lists and goals for each month.  You can view monthly and weekly pages at the same time, and at 7″ x 8.5″ the planner is easy to carry around in a purse or tote bag.  You can read all about the design right here!

For something a bit extra, Laurel is generously offering Oh So Beautiful Paper readers a special large format to do list that you can use in concert with the 2012 planner.  You can download the PDF right here!  Thanks Laurel!

{happy weekend!}

Yet another week that flew by much too quickly (at least for me)!  This weekend my husband and I are heading to upstate New York to spend time with my husband’s family and visit our brand new niece!   I’m bracing myself for cold weather and hoping to catch a glimpse of the changing leaves that I’ve heard are so pretty in the region (although the leaves have been very pretty here in DC, too).  But in the meantime…

…a few links for your weekend!

This week on Oh So Beautiful Paper:

Welcome to the newest member of the Designer Rolodex!

That’s it for me this week!  Check back a bit later for this week’s cocktail recipe – it’s a seriously good one this week!  I hope you all have a wonderful weekend, and I’ll see you back here on Monday! xoxo
