Once you pop, you have to wait until tomrorow
Counting down the days can be a stressful endeavor, especially when you’re approaching those please-not-yet events like the last day of summer or a particularly mature birthday. Brooklyn’s Stephen Turbek has taken the traditional calendar and cross-bred it with one of the best all-time stress releievers: bubble wrap! It’s is a full-year-calendar printed on paper with heavier plastic bubbles for a more satisfying “POP!” Don’t get too carried away or you might find yourself in April before it’s even February.
$20.12 at Annie’s Blue Ribbon General Store or online.
