Make your own family calendar to help you organize and plan for the year.<
There are so many ways you can make this calendar.
1. Make 12 layouts:
* Using pictures in Microsoft Publisher and print it out on card-stock with this calendar front and back.
* You digital scrapbookers have got it easy! Simply print out 12 of your favorites, use this calendar, and have it spiral bound.
* Use your kids artwork from school for the layouts.
2. Take it to Office Depot and have it spiral bound with a plastic front cover and black back cover.
3. To personalize and make the calendar more useful, I add all the families birthdays and other special days.
I add everything to my calendar, such as:
* Birthdays (be sure to add new friends & babies)
* Boy Scouts
* Church meetings
* Date Nights: Spouse, Daddy/Daughter, Mother/Son
* Doctors Appointments, Due Dates, and other Reminders: Dentist, Ortho, shots, etc.
* Holiday & Events
* Monthly Events: Girls Night Out, Book Club, etc.
* Pay Bill Day
* Play Dates for kiddos
* School Holiday & Break Schedules
* Sports sign up dates, practices, and games
* Vacations and Day trips
At the bottom of each month I add things I need to remember for that month, such as:
* Birthday Cards
* Birthday Party planning
* Holiday planning, gift planning, and outfit planning
* Kids letters to Grandparents (our goal is to write 1 a month and rotate the grandparents)
* Contact an old friend (I e-mail or send something to 1 long-time friend a month)
* Cash for Food Storage (I collect a small amount of cash each month and put away, just in case.)
Make the Calendar for:
1. Yourself to keep you organized.
2. Christmas Gift for the Grandparents.
You could go one further and make this calendar holder. It’s seriously so easy!

How to Make the Calendar Holder:
1. Simply get some plywood and molding, cut the molding to frame the board.
2. I painted the board red first and then black. (You can use any colors)
3. Sand different places around the frame with sand paper to let the red show through.
4. Spray it with polyurethane.
5. Order your family name in cream vinyl lettering.
See the tutorial on how to make this on my personal blog.

i love this calendar!! I am trying to make my own day planner this year, since it seems that every year I find a planner I can live with, or sometimes one I actually like, and when the new year rolls around…TADA! they no longer make that particular one! This has been happpening for about 4 years straight… and i am very frustrated to say the least. someone mentioned making my own and having it bound at office depot.. I love the dayplanner type size ..like approx half of a sheet of regular copy paper…but turned portrait mode.. I am looking for a template that has 2011 with the months. (one month across 2 pages)
would actually be one month across a regular 8.5 x 11 page landscape mode, with space in the middle to be bound.. then i have to figure out how to print them back to back to make this work.. can you help me at all with this project? I would so appreciate it…. 🙂

I love your 2009 calendar. So yo happen to have the 2010 calendar made yet. I would love to print it out. I am the coordinator of a moms group in my town and we are making your executive homemaker binders and I would love to have the calendar for the binders.
Thanks
