Bubble Calendar

There's something almost quaint about opting for a bona fide paper calendar these days; who uses them? Like a diary, Moleskin, sketchbook, or notepad we buy on impulse, most of us will ever get much past January 10 with that non-electronic 12-month planner we purchased. The online versions just seem to be a tad more convenient and streamlined.

That being said, the Bubble Calendar is pretty slick, and certainly better than get a Far Side strip-a-day desktop calendar, right? The idea is to pop the days as they pass. The 48" X 17" posters are handmade (in Brooklyn, no less) and include not only the numbered days of the month but all major U.S. holidays as well. We're not sure if the things are legible, and we've resolved to never use one as interior decor with a toddler in the house, but the idea's pretty sweet.

If anything, the Bubble Calendar is a good gifting idea. Get more information here.
