A Whole Month in Your Hands
by Katrina Farmer
Here's a thoughtful way to mark the passing of the months and years: a calendar sphere. Designed and painted by classical artist Jill DiPippo of Warren, Rhode Island, this delightful sculpture presents ornamental interpretations of people born in each month. You may order a custom sphere (Jill considers things such as favorite colors, plants, and places to travel) or choose the standard design of the month, featuring an amalgamation of people and interests. A calendar sphere makes a great wedding, anniversary, birthday, or retirement gift -- think of each one as a celebration you can hold in your hand. Choose from 3-inch ($175), 5-inch ($300), 8-inch ($600), and 12-inch ($1,200) spheres. jilldipippo.com
