Happy New Year! I hope 2017 is treating you well so far. Is one of your resolutions to organize and clean out your home and make your space a little more relaxed and cozy? Toss/donate all the stuff that doesn't make you happy or serve a purpose anymore?  Maybe redo your office space at work? (yeah, me too!)

If you're looking for a new 2017 calendar that is pretty, inspirational, and functional, check out my new 2017 5x7 desk calendars. I love these calendars! They are small enough to be unobtrusive on your desk (ugh, who wants that big old ugly blotter calendar?) You can display these calendars in a 5x7 frame, on your desk at work, hang on your refrigerator, pin to your inspiration board, use as a bookmark, or hang from a clipboard or mini clothespins-- the possibilities are really endless! And, here's the best part-- after the month is over, you can trim off the calendar portion and you have a 5x5 print ready to frame and display. This is a fabulous and inexpensive way to get 12 5x5 prints to decorate your walls or shelves.
