I am a planner. Not my best quality, not my worst. I'm working harder to be a bit more spontaneous -- our summer road trip was proof of that -- but I will probably never be able to turn off the part of me that wants to make sure everything is in alignment.
I am also a visual person. I need to see plans in writing, physically see my to do list on paper, to make it make sense in my head. While I love technology, it is not always my friend in my plan making.
This physical need to visualize plans is what inspired this project. For nearly all of my adult life, I have had a physical calendar in my kitchen, planning out the months. Usually, I'd look for calendars that would add a bit of art to my space, or even let me dream of far-off places. You know, something that looks nice. Not too long ago, we "upgraded" to a dry-erase magnetic calendar for our fridge since wall space is a bit limited in my current kitchen.
