Any ideas on how to make Calenders?

kitkat

I'm looking to make a Calender to give as presents to relatives with pictures of my DS on each month. I don't really want to pay the prices on the likes of photobox & wondered if there are any free websites that do this.

Does anyone have any tips on how to go about this?

if your creative you could cut and mat piccies of your little one onto card,bind together using ribbon and download the 2008 calender and matt and layer this on each page.i think they would look lovely,you could scan your pics into the pc to bring them to the size you wanted.home made is definately made with love and effort

not sure what your budget is but in Boots today they had them already made up and you just put in a different picture every month, they were £6.99 each. no idea if thats good or bad.

I am in the middle of creating one for family of my 3 children and am doing it on the vistaprint website, they are doing a special offer of £1.99 per calendar (+ p&p of course), but it is sooo simple to do and you can personalise dates and put comments under your pictures etc. You can also save it to go back to ..

If you want to do it, the way to get it for £1.99 (instead of the usual £3.99) is to google 'photo calendar' when I did it, the vistaprint one was about the 3rd one down, click on and it takes you to the page with the reduced price...

I have signed up to receive newsletters from vistaprint and I got one the other day for FREE photo calendars (you just pay P&P) so try signing up for the newsletters and see if you get an offer to make one free.
Would it work if I posted the link? :question:

anyone know if you can get make-your-own slim calendars -my gdad has limited space between light switch and door where he hangs his calender, would love to make one but only a long thing one!! do any online sites etc have them?

there are several websites if you use google that you can print out the calendars just type in print out calendars.

I have done this a few months ago as i am on the pta and we got he kids to do there own self portrait then i printed out the bottom bits and have put it all together looks great and selling well.

if i get time i will search and get you links but i found them quite easily, there were one that you can stick your photo in the gap or colour a picture in the gap
