Time to take a moment and organise your favourite moments from the previous year. Gather your 12 highlights – one or more for every month – to create your calendar.
Food and cooking
Photos of yummy seasonal fruit and veg will make the perfect calendar subject and remind you to never eat out of season again.
Tip: easily add a list of seasonal produce each month using the text option in the calendar creator tool.
Nature’s beauty
Snowy scenes in January, seaside photos in august and falling leaves in October. Take inspiration from the natural world and use your favourite photos of nature throughout the year.
Around the world
Go for photos of your favourite places and throw in some dream destinations for a daily dose of inspiration.
Play dress up
Dress your pets up in adorable outfits and use seasonal props like love hearts in February and pumpkins in October to make a cheerful calendar that you’ll love looking at every day.
Show off their artistic flair
Scan or photograph your little one’s artwork and use them to make a calendar that you’ll treasure. It’s also a great idea for a photo book, as you can see from these examples.
Quote me on that
Use our new “Quotes” calendar with quotes on it to create your own inspiring monthly planner. Be inspired by our selection or add your own quotes instead.
