The 2024 Kites Collection!

This is the newest collection, featured on the 2024 Desi Planner! Inspired by the kites seen flying all summer long in the South Asian skies, this collection is equal parts nostalgic and optimistic!

Kite flying over the summer on rooftops with our cousins is one of the happiest times and memories of our childhood in India. The cover for the 2024 Desi Planner is personal.  It also represents a bringing together of people, of a simple time in our lives when all we worry about is our kite flying skills, and of a whimsical and joyful part of our collective culture.
