CALENDARS '
Calendars are the perfect gift when it \ comes to long-lasting. Months after you’ve given one, you will still hear how it is bringing joy to the receiver. They are truly gifts that keep on giving.
Large, beautiful calendars can be found on just about any topic imaginable. From full-color dogs and cats to oily pumped-up bodybuilders to luscious garden landscapes.
For animal lovers there are plenty of calendars meeting the needs of dog and cat lovers. Workman Publishing delivers a bounty of furry friends in its “365 Puppies a Year Calendar” and “365 Kittens a Year Calendar.”
These two gems offer pictures of puppies and kittens each and every day of the month.
These wall calendars are perfect for adults and children. However, more adults will be hanging these up.
In addition Workman also offers “Greenpeace: Stepping Lightly on the Earth,” which is filled with a year’s worth of animals in the wild and explains why they should remain that way and what you can do to help.
A behind-the-scenes look at animal wildlife is also available in a wall calendar. The San Diego chapter of the American Association of Zoo Keepers produced a calendar with a look at wildlife not usually found hanging around on a wall. “Animal Buns” is a tongue-and-cheeky calendar that pokes fun at all those human buns calendars. Animals range from the feathery to the furry, all caught in natural positions.
For those on your buying list who would rather have something in the artistic world, something a little more serious and not as cute, there’s plenty of those from the Neues Publishing Co. Some of the offerings include:
• Art. “African American Masters,” “Eliot Porter’s America,” “Louvre,” “Impressionism: Sunlight & Shadow,” “Museo del Prado,” “Dali” and “Kandinsky.”
• Photography. “Mapplethorpe,” “Annie Leibovitz,” “Marilyn,” “Louis Stettner’s New York” and “Bertram Bahner.”
• Various. “First Love,” “The British Country Garden,” “Navajo Textiles,” “Botanicals,” “Keith Haring” and “Keith Haring Coloring Calendar.”
If you want to keep the visual theme of gift-giving constant, you may also want to look for your receiver’s favorite videos.
