Cynthia Hart's Victoriana Calendar 2002 [Wall Calendar] [Calendar]

Workman Publishing (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: August 1, 2001

Like a bridge from their turn of the century to ours, the Victorians' passion for rosy-cheeked babies and twining hearts, teddy bears and Old St. Nick fills us with a singular joy. In the gifted hands of Cynthia Hart, the doyenne of Victoriana, these images are transformed. Working with hundreds of rare pieces of paper ephemera, a profusion of fresh flowers, rich fabrics, laces, antique jewelry, and other collectibles, she creates resplendent collages evoking beauty, charm, nostalgia, and whimsy.

A success for twelve strong years, VICTORIANA enters its thirteenth as fresh and vibrant as its first. And happily, the gift collection continues: Packaged with each calendar are 4 die-cut full-color postcards, a pretty year-at-a-glance desktop calendar, and a 24-page "Victoriana Book of Days" birthday book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Timely and timeless, January 2, 2003

Once again, I received this as a gift. It is one of the best gifts anyone could give me. I have bought my own in the past. Ms Hart's calendar has been my fav over the past 9 years. But this is so much more than just a wall calendar with beautiful Victorian pictures.

*There is a Day Book that fits into a lot of day planners or purses. Since it just lists the days, I use it for a "birthday/special days" book.

*Then there is a standup calendar showing the entire year at once. I always kept that at my work station.

*If that were not enough, included are four postcards that are suitable for framing.

If you like Victorian, should you buy this, you will get one year after year. I can't recommend it enough. I save mine each year and use the lovely photographs for crafts or frame and have given some as gifts.
