Calendars - Are Yours Up?

I'm sure that you remember the jumbo series of posts where I rounded up calendars of all shapes and sizes for 2010 from mostly independent artists. Well call me a geek but the things that I look forward to most on January 1st include taking a long walk, snapping a photo of myself, enjoying brunch at home (this year we made mimosas with salmon herb omelets) and pulling out my calendars and arranging them in parts of my home. This year I have three, this beauty below is from artist Catherine Campbell from My Folk Lover in Australia.

I stuck it on the wall with some double-sided tape for this photo, but I plan to buy a frame today since stores are open again - I think putting it in a frame will only enhance its beauty and allow it to serve as art in addition to protecting it from bends. I can easily switch the months as I go, and the beauty of this calendar is that I can use a paper cutter and trim the calendar portion off of the bottom and keep the art, either to frame it alone or to cut it postcard size and mail to friends since the reverse side is plain white.

Do you have your calendars up yet? Where did you put them? Which ones did you purchase?
