The Irish Dresser and Folklore Calendar

The Irish Dresser and Folklore Calendar A stunning new calendar exploring the Irish dresser and dates of folkloric importance in Ireland.

“Dressers, their makers and owners, the objects displayed are beautifully captured by Michael Fortune. Functional and beautiful, dressers are evocative and prompt memories. Through image and interview Michael weaves and shares the story of the Irish dresser. Enjoy!”

(Rosa Meehan, Curator at the National Museum of Ireland - Country Life)

Okay folks. Good news for people looking for copies of The Folklore of Wexford (Vol 1) and The Irish Dresser Calendar. I have managed to round up 20 copies of Volume 1 (the green one that everyone wants!) and I found a shop in Waterford that had a box of calendars that they didn’t open - don’t get me started. Anyway - the good news is they are posting them back to me today and I’ll have them tomorrow! So if you want copies - please PM me or head over to www.folklore.ie and order them directly I will be posting them every day until they are gone. Thanks a million

Thanks a million to Eoin from Pint of Plane for giving The Irish Dresser Calendar a mention. If you don't know his work, you really should as he is trojan work and follow his page. Thanks Eoin.

PS- Just to let you know I have only about 160 calendars left and there will be no reprints as I'm too busy with the folklore book.

I am delighted to be chatting with Maura Derrane and Daithí O Sé on their show RTÉ Today later this afternoon. I will on the sofa with them chatting about The Irish Dresser Calendar and the wider Irish Dresser Project that I do. They have been great at giving the calendar a plug over the years but it's great to be actually in the studio chatting, as I even brought down a little dresser from Wexford. Really looking forward to the chat and don't forget to tune in from 3.30pm to 5.30pm to catch the show.
