2025 Flip Over Desk Calendar – August

Welcome to my Corner of the World

Welcome to my Corner of the World

The theme this month is Summer Vibes. As I explain in the video Daisies speak to me of summer, those pretty little flowers on the lawn thru to Shasta and Gerbera’s – they are bright and cheerful and perfect for this challenge.
