In this age where you can find a calendar on your computer or mobile phone, I still choose to display a wall calendar. There's something about the blank white spaces waiting to be filled with an appointment or important reminder. It's also my excuse to purchase one if I don't get one as a present. My 2009 calendar was all about London and its landmarks. I loved all the photos that were revealed as the year progressed, and now that 2009 is over, I don't think I want to throw the calendar away.
So I'm turning this blah...
I cut my favorite images from the calendar and placed them in a simple frame. The photo above is the British Museum. I really like the glass ceiling that lets the sunshine in.
Here's another iconic British symbol -- the double decker bus. I love the blazing red color that brings back memories of afternoons exploring the city.
Very vibrant. Nice cropping too. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Melissa! Have a splendid New Year!
ReplyDeleteVery good idea! I have had some beautiful wall calenders that I loath to throw away, and those clip-frames are so inexpensive to buy, but can look really good!
ReplyDeleteThank you for this idea!
Happy New Year!
Thanks Alice in Wonderland! I know that you'll have a wall filled with instant, beautiful art!
ReplyDeleteHave an awesome 2010!
That's the bus I take to work! I love the old London buses, they are much nicer than the horrible bendy buses we now have on some routes. Hope you enjoyed your London trip :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I tend to cling to old calendars for the photos. Now I have an idea of how to make better use of them :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting Katie! I hope you have an art gallery-like wall made of old calendars :)
ReplyDeleteHello Pandora! I miss London already...I wish I could ride a magic bus and take me there instantly! Cheers Love!
