good morning! i’ve got the jitters already this morning (big announcement about a new d*s project at 1pm today!) so i’m going to try to calm my nerves by focusing on these (new) cool blue calendar from miriam bereson in australia. miriam’s new 2010 planner (and their new family calendar) is a gorgeous range of blue hues and is a wonderfully creative way to keep track of the days and months. if you have a lot to write on each day it may not be the best option, but if you’re like me and just jot down small bits of info (birthdays, anniversaries, ben & jerry free cone days) it’s perfect. the new miriam bereson calendars are available right here for $25 and $12.50.

i also want to take a moment to welcome andy beach of reference library and stork bites man to the d*s guest blog! i was a big fan of the temporary shop andy set up for kiosk and am so excited to see the second shop he’ll be doing for them again soon! until then, andy will be joining us this week with his unique, minimalist spin on great design finds from ebay and beyond.. click here to check out his first post on great ebay finds…welcome, andy!
