DIY Calendar

OneYorkshireLass

Has anyone created their own calendar online (i.e. uploading pictures) like this: http://photos.next.co.uk/pages/photo_calendars/wall-calendars.asp

I thought £18 for a calendar was a bit steep. Does anyone know of any others?

I usally buy one of these from Boots every year for my work desk. You print your own photos and you either slip them into a pocket or stick them onto the page. Easy and cheap http://www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/EndecaSearchListerView?storeId=10052&langId=-1&catalogId=11051&stReq=1&searchTerm=photo+calender&newDepSearch=&x=0&y=0#container

That's a better idea than what I was looking at originally, thank you

I used Photobox to create one for my Gran and it was great quality. They currently have an offer on where an A4 one is £13.87

I use vistaprint who have an offer of one for 99p or five for the cost of one £11.99 and add postage.

I have been using Vistaprint for the past few years now, usually either 1 free or 5 for the price of 1 (£11.99) and the quality is great and they are delivered much quicker than what they say (just pay for slow delivery - up to 21 days) and mine was here just over a week later! :j

Hi Yorkshire Lass,

I've been looking around for calendars too, and don't like how Vista add on such big postage costs.

My cousin won a calendar on Facebook last month, and they're only £10 each. She's personalised hers with photos of her baby, and different text on each page.

Have a look

Oh and it's not a baby calendar, that was just the name of the competition that she won!

Our local Poundland has one where you print out the pictures and stick them in - might be worth a look? They're Polaroid ones I think, I haven't bought one myself, so can't say how good they are. Beware though, they seemed to have 2012 calendars mixed in with the 2013 ones...an honest mistake I'm sure

VistaPrint are ripping us off people ... I created a 99p calendar, purely as a stocking filler as normally I wouldn't have done this, got to the checkout and that calendar was then showing at £5.99. I went back and created another 99p calendar, and that one showed as £0.99p but this time a "discount" voucher was present in the cart. So I deleted the new calendar I created and the "discount" voucher remained in place, great I thought. So, this morning I get up to complete the payment and the discount voucher has gone again and I'm having to pay £5.99 plus £3.86 P&P which totals £9.85 for an advertised £0.99p calendar ... even with the voucher (which I'll have to get by creating another calendar presumably) this still makes me wonder where the £3.86 P&P comes in?. Chances are I'm not even going to bother now cause I'd rather go and spend £10 for the same thing at a local print shop than be duped into paying more than advertised.

I made these last year & am doing another one this year. They are nice quality & you get the photographic paper included. 1 photo per month
