Late last year I wrote a post about my bad luck keeping a day-to-day calendar. For 2009, I bought a small (3″ x 6″) day planner covered in pretty marbled paper. And to my continued surprise, I’ve used it faithfully all year. It fits in my purse and with the bright paper cover I can find it quickly in the clutter of my desk. So for 2010 I’ve bought another small day planner, this one with an important added feature: a built-in rubber band to keep it closed.
While looking for day planners online, I noticed a preponderance of perpetual calendars. I especially like this one — both art and calendar. It’s from Evan and Nichole Robertson’s shop Little Brown Pen.
