Introducing the 2025 Desk Calendar
It’s here, friends! I’m so excited to introduce you all to the 2025 Desk Calendar!
If you follow me on social media then you know I’ve been hard at work on illustrations for the calendar since last winter. Eeek! Today honestly feels like Christmas Day because I’m so excited to share it with you! There’s a few new things this year too.
This is the 4th year I’m offering the calendar and this one is just so special! With each year I grow as an artist and, of course, I’m always trying to get better. I finally mastered the lobster this summer and a whole host of other subjects which you will see in the calendar.
I’m teaching some in person watercolor workshops and you can see more about watercolor workshops here.
Introducing the 2025 Desk Calendar
Give the gift of watercolors for a full year. The 2025 boxed calendar is a celebration of each season – a cotton tail bunny in spring, classic lobster in summer, a beautiful regal crow in fall, and the iconic Brant Point Lighthouse in Nantucket for winter. A whimsical watercolor illustration on each calendar page.
- a 5.5 x 7 inch gift box with an illustrated band.
- 12 month cards on premium textured card stock.
- Watercolor illustrations by me.
- The handmade white oak stand to showcase the calendar made by Luke.
- Made and Printed in Massachusetts
What’s New This Year?
I absolutely LOVE white oak. You may already know this. Luke built me the most beautiful white oak coffee table and I just really love the aesthetic of that wood and I love how heavy it is. Well, I think the 2025 desk calendar deserved a lovely white oak stand!
Luke has created the most beautiful white oak stands. They are stunning. I didn’t realize they’d be more time consuming because of how hard and heavy the wood is, but I think you will all love them.
As you know, Luke is my biggest cheerleader and supporter. He always helps me at markets and will be at all the holiday markets again this year. Thanks, Luke!
Made in Massachusetts
This calendar is completely made in Massachusetts. All the illustrations are hand painted by me in our sunroom. Luke hand crafts the stands. I assemble all the sets right at our dining room table.
I also need to give a special shout out to my amazing printers – TPI Solutions Ink! They are wonderful! The paper almost feels like watercolor paper and has a lovely texture. The prints look just like my original watercolor paintings. TPI Solutions Ink is a third generation family owned business, that’s been running for 60 years! I highly recommend Carrie and her team if you’re looking for a good printer. You can see a video they shared of creating some of my products.
We’re working on some fun things together for Christmas and for 2025!
Where Can you Find the Calendar?
You can find the calendar in our online shop from today 9/13 and it will heading to our small retailers. I am so grateful for the support of all the small independent shops who have supported me and my artwork. Please shop small this season!
We will also have calendars at holiday markets and shows in the coming months.
I will say that we have limited quantities and don’t want you to miss out. So order / shop early!
Refill Packs
We will have a limited number of refill packs available in our online shop. This option is for people if you don’t want the full boxed set or the white oak stand.
The refill packs are the 12 calendar pages and an insert card. This set DOES NOT include the gift box or wooden stand.
Some Ideas for Your Calendars
The calendars make wonderful gifts – perfect for swaps, friends, family! You name it. I have mine on my desk right by my computer. I’ve had lovely comments from customers telling me that the little calendar brings them so much joy. A customer from North Carolina said she uses the illustrations as gift tags and she’s thinking of making magnets out of some once the months pass by. I love hearing and seeing how you’re enjoying the calendar throughout the year.
