I had a lot of fun making these calendars, though they were quite time-consuming. They measure 3 1/2 x 5 in. and go great in my purse. I sold a bunch of these and gave them as gifts for birthdays or just because. Calendar is printed off my computer.

I love these, too! I have looked at all kinds of calendars thinking I would do some for small Christmas gifts this year. These are the definitely the cutest so far! Do you have a special machine that does the binding? Would you mind sharing more information about these?

Since I am new, I'm not sure where the best place to post the information would be. I can be pretty windy sometimes and since my computer program isn't capable of duplicating on the same page layout screen, I did a LOT of manual labor even before I stamped. But as far as creating the calendar part, I used my Miccrosoft Word document and at the top is an icon for Table. Click that then choose "Insert number of columns". I think I did 7 columns across and 6 rows down since I used one of the rows for the days of the month. I also added coard board to the back to make it more "commercial". At first I took them to our local printing shop to get them bound, but then I found a friend at church that could do it for me for 2/3 the price. If someone could point me to best place to put the instructions, I'll do that as soon as possible. Thanks so much for your great comments!!
These are great calenders. Wonderful job. Were you ever able to post the directions to this project. I would love it if you would share them. I would love to do them for Mothers Day Gifts. Thank you
You can email me the document if it is easier for you.

Another fave, do you bind your own notebooks? I am shopping for a binder not sure if I want to spend the cash, but they sure do sell well at craft fairs.
