how to make my own calendars ?

JillD_2

Ok before I get told off I have looked on the Christmas home-made-gift threads and can't fiond what I am looking for....

I want to make calendars for the kids grandparents for Christmas, something with one oage per monght with the calendary bit at the bottom and a photo of them. So 12 photos of them in all, one per month.

Not sure where to begin though - where to get the calendary bit from, what paper to use, how to stick the photos on (glue ? tape ? photo corners ?) and most worryingly, how to bind it all.

The idea is for it to cost 0p apart from printing out the photos at home and I suppose buying some paper or ribbon or something.

Does anyone have any inspiration ?
Thanks,
Jill

If you have Microsoft Word, insert the photo at the top of a page, then insert a table underneath for the calendar part.

Or File, New, Other Documents ... and follow the Calendar Wizard.

of things to make using your printer.

Thanks guys, these are both great tips.
I've also decided to bind them with spine bars and white cotton string.

Cheers :beer:
