Hi guys
Need a bit of help from you crafy, home making prezzie peeps
I'm going to make a home made calendar for family members of my little boy dressed up in outfits throught the year, he's only 5mths old so i thought it would be quite cute.
I have a rough list, can you let me know what you think ?
Jan - snow scene (dressed in a snow bear suit and snow around him)
Feb - Valentines day (Maybe dressed as cupid? )
Mar - St Davids day (His dad is Welsh, Have a welsh rugby suit and a big leek :rotfl:)
Apr - Easter (Maybe a bunny suit)
May - Not too sure yet maybe dress him as a maypole
Jun - His 1st birthday
Jul - Bucket spade and shades
Aug - Mabe a mini BBQ
Sep - Harvest ??? Maybe in a big basket with tins of food around him ??
Oct - Halloween maybe a pumpkin or a devil ?
Nov - Dress him as some sort of firework ?
Dec - Santa suit
I have Jan, march & Dec sorted as i have the suits already, i obviously want to spend as little as possible if i can can you help on ways to do this, and more importantly do you think it's a good idea

Wouldn't you be better just imposing his face on different scenes. I can't imagine he's going to be very happy being dressed up in different outfits and may become unco-operative!!
May could be Spring Bank Holiday. Face on Zebedee with a suitcase with bank logo on.
Sept. back to school LOL ~Laugh and the world laughs with you, weep and you weep alone.~:)

May - lots and lots of flowers... could be expensive getting real ones at this time of year, so maybe flower decorated wrapping paper behind him and just a flower in his hand?
Aug - how about just giving him a hotdog, seeing what mess he gets into with the ketchup and snapping that!

Im planning something similiar as a suprise present for my 18mth old niece to give her parents. I thought of maybe having a picture of her and her mum for the month with mothers day and her and her dad for fathers day. I already have a picture of her in raincoat and wellies which i thought i would use for april and i have a picture of her dressed up for halloween. I thought I would take her out to kick in the leaves for september. I've got a santa hat she can model for december. I've got a cute picture of her hugging her pink cat for february (I'll impose a few little hearts around the edge). I know shes not going to be keen on a long photo session so Im hoping to be able to use quite a few candid shots and then just do a couple of set-up ones.0
