I try to look back each year on my feeble attempts at keeping an "artsy" calendar. In the nearly six years I've been doing this, I haven't created an "artsy" one yet. But here is 2016 in calendar form.

DecemberFor my final page in 2016, I got it on the scanner a bit wonky, but you can still see most of it. I also got a bit carried away with stickers. Again, it's my feeble attempt to make it a bit artsy.
But now let's turn to 2017
January is ready to fill with memories and cheer, but probably will not be very artsy.

I'm sure it's interesting being able to look back on everything you did and made, have fun filling your calendar in the new year. Have a great 2017, hugs, Valerie
I think this is a wonderful idea but I would never keep it up. I used to start a diary every Janaury 1st and by the end of the month it had hardly anything on it. Maybe this year could be the year to resolve to do a calendar and think of you as I write it each day.
Happy 2017 Elizabeth to you and your furbies.
Love Chrissie xx
This is so interesting - I will try to notice something every day this year as well. Just to remember... but I bet I will not continue to do it the whole year...lol!
I noticed that the Tuesday Highlightd are fixed for January - great!
New Year's Eve to you and the boys.

Lovely to see your calendar for 2016. I do an art one every year, and start by altering an old accounts book of my dad's and then paint it and add stamping and paper rectangles to write on. I must admit some of the days are blank, as I only write down the art stuff.
To answer your comment on my blog --- No I do not have a hoard of chocolate in my studio. Cough, splutter.
I also tell fibs.
Have a super New Year, Wendy xx
What a lovey way to remember your year - wow that really takes some dedication too :-). Wishing you every happiness in the coming year! J :-) x
Love all the stickers. I've tried to keep an art calendar. No success. I spend too much time arting than doing what I'm supposed to. I use an electronic calendar and I"m trying a weekly to do on a white board.
It's impressive! And I think you've successfully combined artsy with functional. Happy New Year!
The beginning of each year I thinking I should do this again...and then the excitement of the thought wears off. I still go back and look at the one year I did complete... I applaud you for keeping at it!
I enjoyed looking through your calendars. Maybe not artsy but certainly a good way to keep track of things. :) You had a relatively good year- minus a few little snafus and the big basement flooding which was not good I bought a little day planner type of calendar for the new year and I am going to try keeping a journal in that. Let's see how that goes. Happy New Year! Hugs-Erika
It's a pretty artsy and over the top full calendar if you ask me. I've got so much going on already for 2017, my littler 18 month planner is proving to be a lifeline. Thanks so much agan for my quiltlet, it's hanging right next to my studio table so I can see it every day, such a charming hand stitched face. Happy 2017, many more adventures to come. xox
Oh well done, for keeping the calender going all year. It must solve the questions I frequently ask myself - what did I do last Wednesday or even what did I do yesterday.
I was a bit disappointed that there was not more about Bleubeard and Squiggles but maybe they keep their own diaries?
Happy New Year, Elizabeth!! Another calendar month ahead. ;)
This is a a super record of your year Elizabeth. Something I think I would like to try to do, but I have never been one to keep records or diaries, maybe this will be the year, who knows.

I love your 2016 calendar -- it is like keeping a short hand diary.

All I can say is that I'm incredibly impressed!
Many Happy New Year wishes and countless thanks for your many kind visits and comments to the Gypsy in 2016! I look forward to more connection in the new year!
I love seeing your calendar pages and the way you add to your pages over the month I can't start mine yet as I have forgotten where my new one is!!!(a true case of C.R.A.F.T.....Can't Remember A Flippin' Thing!!!!) I have plans to make mine a little easier to decorate! Hugs, Chrisx

I just LOVE a clean and empty January calendar -- even if it doesn't stay that way. Happy New Year.
I always plan to journal on my calendar but we started using a huge one in the kitchen and it doesn't come down until the new year.
I keep thinking I will keep a separate one for myself and incorporate my art but hasn't happened yet.....have a new year to actually do it.....so we will see.
Happy New Year and thank you for sharing.....
Your calendar journal is fabulous.
I did print out one for downstairs and one for my arty/craft room but I don't think there's enough room in each day to write or draw much other than something in abbreviations. The slips of paper for my gratitude jar are a bit bigger so I use that of course.

Jag lärde fake IWC känna mina grannar. För att vara rättvis har vi alltid varit hjärtliga, men våra dagliga incheckningar blev fake audemars piguet den enda mänskliga kontakten som någon av oss skulle ha haft i flera veckor. En konversation om vädret här, en kopp socker för kolibrierna och en fake panerai extra ananas där. Jag började tillverka kycklingsoppa varje vecka och se till att det fanns tillräckligt för alla tre hushåll. Det första partiet var utmärkt. Det fake hublot andra partiet var hemskt, men ingen klagade. Ellen är en mångfaldig personalpersonal vars timmar just hade skurits av sin arbetsgivare. Hon studerar för att vara fake seiko en meteorolog på sidan, bara för. Jonathan är en indian och en Vietnamkrigsveteran - en av marinens fake rolex tidigaste Force Recon-operatörer som senare skulle bli lärling under den legendariska San Francisco-fotografen Jim fake Rolex Marshall. På en molnig dag i april använde jag ett långt objektiv för att skjuta hans porträtt när han stod på trappan på verandan med Apache regalia. "Få mig att rolex replica se gammal ut," frågade han. "... Och gör det som ett kornigt svartvitt fotografi." Jag rolex kopia gjorde mitt bästa.
