Officially Ready

Happy Wednesday! Although it's January 18th, I am now finally, officially ready for 2012. I framed my calendar last night. 

Normally I have everything professionally framed. I went to Michael's two weeks ago and they wanted $97 to frame it (that was AFTER the 60% off coupon) without any matting. I decided to order a frame instead. A+ for saving money!! I'm also happy to say that it was quite easy to frame; the most difficult part was that I didn't let the actual calendar "rest" long enough and it kept wanting to roll up on me. *For the super-observant folks, yes, it's a little crooked. I'm going to fix it in a few days once it is used to being flat. 

I decided to hang it in a little nook in our kitchen. Our "office" is in the basement (truth be told we haven't even put our desk together yet), so I keep a few necessary office supplies in the kitchen. You can't tell from the photo, but I have an acrylic ruler, tape dispenser, and little tray. I want an acrylic stapler next.

I smile every time I walk by this calendar!! Do you have a 2012 calendar yet; if so, what kind did you purchase?
