Calendar Paper and Ideas

Every year we bring in different Calendar Papers to inspire those who like to build their own calendars or desk calendars!! 

Check out the newest calendar line from BoBunny, Banner Year 

Each sheet of 12" x 12" paper contains a mini blank calendar as well as some fun areas to write and some cut-outs that pertain to the month 

I thought it might be fun to create a Pocket Calendar that you can put in your purse!! It fits perfectly in this check book cover and can be changed out depending on the month 

I folded a small piece of card stock and put photo corners on one side to hold the mini calendar in place. I only tucked it on the left side of my check book cover and when I fold it over there is a space at the back of the card stock to make a little pocket to hold a grocery list. The photo corners allow me to trade out the mini-calendar with a new month 

The pocket on the right side of the check book cover is great to hold to-do lists, notes about upcoming birthdays or anniversaries, or to hold your check book!! 

I placed a fun piece of decorative paper in the front and back of the check book cover to make my Pocket Calendar more fun!! 

You can also make a fun Desk Calendar for your self using card stock, acetate, decorative papers, and double-sided tape 

I made a quick tent-fold for the base and scored each side at 1/2" to fold under for the bottom. I taped a piece of Acetate at the bottom to keep the base from falling over. This is also where I place the upcoming months for when I am ready to switch it out!
​
I used 1" strips of decorative paper to make the pockets on either side of the tent fold and tucked in items like a mini-calendar and some fun cut-outs from the sheets of decorative paper to make it more *exciting*

On the other side of my tent-fold base, I put in little reminders about birthdays or bills that are due! Or, because I love it, little inspirational sentiments!! 

I loved the idea of cutting out some of the little tags to make it more interactive and to more visually pleasing.. besides who doesn't love to be creative?!? 

And, the little pieces for the upcoming months can just slide right underneath the tent-fold base so you can easily transition into the next months! 

What I love about the calendar papers is you can just cut them up and use them to make a few cards as well!!
