Birthday Calendar

Dutch heritage with a modern wink. Each month of this birthday calendar opens with its own full-colour illustration of a young woman in traditional Dutch dress, with lace caps, embroidered bodices, beaded necklaces and striped aprons. She blows bubblegum bubbles in her red sunglasses, lies in a field of flowers with a glass of bubbly, or dances through a meadow past a windmill.

The seasons run through the artwork: tulips and magnolias in spring, cornflowers and cosmos under a summer sky, dahlias and sunflowers in autumn, and poinsettias and pine for December.

Below each illustration, every month has space for all 31 days, so you can write down birthdays and anniversaries once and use the calendar year after year. It starts in December and runs through November. The slim 150 × 297 mm format is printed on thick 350 gsm paper, so the colours stay rich and the pages hold up when you flip through them. It has a spiral binding and a hanging loop.
