For the last 2 years I have gone to etsy.com for my new year calendars. I shop the printable PDF versions so I can print one for my home, office and for all those that want one be it co-workers, friends or family. Now the ‘keep calm and carry on’ propaganda was at-large last year, I even went so far to create prints of my own for myself and friends, so when I saw the below calendar from Stating the Obvious I knew it was the perfect choice for 2011.
Keep Calm And Send Up – 2011 Printable Calendar, $8, statingtheobvious etsy.com

Will I ever get used to saying twenty ten (2010) in place of 0-10! I can’t believe 2009 is over this week, I keep looking at my desktop calendar and January just isn’t there which sent me to Etsy.com in search of a 2010 calendar. I shop Etsy because many designers sell printable PDFs that I can easily make myself or if you rather beautifully constructed calendars for purchase. Last year my roommate and I hosted a New Year’s Eve dinner and I purchased a calendar PDF from the Little Brown Pen on Etsy and made calendar favors for all of our guests. For under $8 I was able to give a gift that lasted all year long and was cute to boot, amazing!
