A look back in time: This wonderful Picturing England calendar takes you on a journey through 150 years of English history via beautifully-preserved photographs from the archives of Historic England. This is Bristol, by the way. Would you have guessed it ….?
A couple of months ago, we asked our self-publishers to submit calendars under the headline “Made in the UK” – with no further restrictions: Traditions, sights, quirks, anything was possible and our users had the freedom to interpret the headline freely and let their creative juices flow. Now and in time for Christmas (gift ideas!), we have a lovely collection of wall calendars in our first ever “Made in the UK” edition, featuring anything from magical woodlands, to Sottish, Welsh and English landscapes, by way of vintage cars, steam trains and much more. We’ve got photography, digital paintings and even calligraphy! It’s eclectic, quirky and quite beautiful – just like the UK.
A huge thank you to all our authors who submitted their work for “Made in the UK”!
And here they are – proudly presenting:

It’s a fox! But not your usual but a ‘recycled’ one: Our self-publisher and artist Danielle Vaughan has put together a whole Animals in Ripped Paper Art calendar featuring wildlife and birds that she created using recycled, ripped papers. Given our German and hence very eco-friendly background, we’re obviously loving this idea!
