Choosing the right wall calendar is a huge decision. No, really, think about it —

You’re going to live with that calendar most intimately for the next 12 months, staring at its images as you go through the days.

Those adorable kittens that were so cute in the early months, the amusing cubicle-clown cartoons, the bland landscapes — will those calendar pictures still hold their charm by the middle of the year?

One wall calendar sure to inspire you throughout 2008 is Nikki McClure‘s Things To Make and Do Calendar. Arguably the Queen of the X-acto Knife, McClure creates her strong paper-cut images from a single piece of paper.

In this calendar, her evocative images of every day life are matched with one powerful verb per month, a call to positive action.

(My favourite is August… ambush!)

Printed on acid-free paper using soy ink, the calendar measures 12 inches square. It’s listed with other Nikki McClure paper goods at BuyOlympia.com, and also new at Elsewares, $16 at either source.
