Collection: Befriend Books

This is my second calendar from you. I was excited when you began the jieqi series as I've also been trying to be more mindful of changing seasons and the passage of time, and people in the west don't often acknowledge these micro-seasons. I love how it was more evident this time around that your style changed over the year as you went through your own life changes. At first I thought it might be jarring to start with illustrations from the end of your journey that meet up with the ones from the beginning, but after flipping through I found it's a reminder of the cyclic nature of the seasons, of how far we have each come since the previous year, and that things really don't have to "match" all the time, lol.

I purchased the 2025 calendar with frame! Beautiful prints as always and nifty magnetic frame to hang each month by.

The 2025 calendar is absolutely beautiful and I am excited to finally hang it up!

It’s as beautiful as I expected it to be! it’s sturdy and like an extra piece of art in my living room.

Nice quality as expected

Lovely, inspirational wallpaper for my iPad.

Beautiful Work, Stylish, Simply Wellmade!

Absolutely love it! A couple years ago my boyfriend purchased the Tiger design in honor of his Grandpa. I was so excited that it was year of the Dragon this year so I could get him a partner print to honor his Grandma! Great quality and shipping. Packagin used for shipping kept the print in good condition. I ordered it with the black frame which was a great choice.

The art prints I ordered arrived super well packed and it was a magical experience to take out each piece from the envelope. They are printed on high quality paper, the colors are true to what was online, and they came with a smaller freebie art print as well! Highly recommend these art prints because I smile every time I see them hanging on my walls :)

I ordered 2 iPhone Pro 15 cases along with a few digital wallpapers. Shipping was fast and secure, and the cases exceeded my expectations! The artwork print is high quality (no pixelation or awkward cropping at all - exactly as pictured) and the overall finish is matte, but still very smooth and comfortable to hold. The case comes in two parts - the outer shell and then a rubber lining for added protection. There are bumpers around the camera opening and front, and the case has a nice, secure weight to it. Note the phone case isn't meant to be used without the rubber lining, but it's removable for cleaning purposes.

Overall I'm so happy with this purchase and to be able to carry Mimi's artwork that I've supported for a long time!

The calendar is so beautiful and so are the digital prints! Amazing customer service as well.

So happy I ordered it earlier so I wouldn't forget. Worth it every year

The 2024 calendar is outstanding!

I have a frame with a hidden whiteboard inside, and I've been looking all over for a simple yet beautiful calendar poster to put into the outer frame (and use the inner whiteboard to mark important dates, etc without cluttering the poster). This is exactly what I was looking for, and the option for no binding was perfect for me. The calendar portion is clear and easy to read, but the illustration is definitely still the main focus and looks like it belongs in a frame. I love it!

Yet again, another absolutely stunning calendar! I’m so excited to see it on my wall next year :-)
