    Another vote for a picture calendar! Theres a link for vistaprint at the minute and its 99p plus 3.08 postage and packing on the 3 week delivery. So easy to make and they are great quality! I have done 2 now for my grandad (one of grandkids one of old pics of him and my nanna) and he actually cried when he opened the second one! Gave it a miss last year as I didnt think I could top the last one but this year Ive done another with pics from a day out we had earlier in the year :D.


    Every year since my little ones have been born we have done a photo calendar for each of the grandparents (they are all separated!)....we have a friend who does a photo session for us each year and gives us the rights to the photos and they are gorgeous....normally other family members ask why they didn't get one!!!

    I have found vistaprint to be good although a bit expensive on the post and packaging sometimes. 2 years ago I had a stripe through 2 of the calendars and they reprinted and reshipped immediately and last year I had a photo where they had misprinted over it and again it took just a photo pf the problem for them to resolve it. I shall be using them agian this year (I saw a cheaper offer on Groupon but I am a creature of habit and like the way the vista print ones are done!
