Calendars of All Kinds Planning on giving a calendar as a gift this year? Need to make it tonight? Looking for one for a trend conscious friend? Want to create one for your own family? Here’s a primer on what kind of calendar to choose for the needs you have or the style you’re looking for. And remember, calendars are the gifts that friends and family alike are excited to receive and eager to use in the coming year. A Traditional Gift to Finish Tonight Pull together thirteen decent photos of the kids from the family photo folders and your gift is almost done. Template 96949, Sandra Dovre’s “2013 Heart Sing Premier” 11 x 8.5 calendar is just the ticket for a fast, easy and meaningful gift. It has just one large photo on front and one on each month’s page. Complete it in only fifteen minutes but know that grandma and grandpa will smile every day for a year when they receive this holiday gift. Gifts with a Twist Looking for a way to bring extra love and laughter to your calendar? Try adding a QR code. The code can be read by any smart phone and will go to a small video or slide show of photos online that you’ve previously prepared. Check out the “Keepsakes that Talk” article by Roxanne Buccholz for step-by-step information. Send messages to your grandchildren on their birthdays or personalize a slide show for each holiday. However you put it together, you’ll be sending video greetings from a code printed right on your calendar. The 11 x 16 calendar shown here is “2013 Talking Family Calendar QR” by Lynda Angelastro, template 97348. But if another calendar style suits your recipient better, check out Roxanne’s easy instructional article and add QR codes to any calendar. Cutting Edge Calendar If you’re looking for another fast and easy but trend-setting calendar to please a design conscious family member, check out Kari Pieratt’s “2013 Typography Calendar.” This 11 x 16 calendar, template 95174 requires just two small photos for each month and has a bold, contemporary look that will be well received by younger or trendier loved ones. Gifts of Tradition If family history’s something you’ve been working on, do we have the calendar for you! Make your efforts do double duty by using Roxanne Buchholz’ “2013 HM Family Heritage Calendar,” template 94891 and showing off your heritage photos along with interesting snippets of legacy information. You’ll be making a gift that will be truly treasured and may well encourage an interest from other family members. A Calendar and a Card Combine a gift and greeting by sending one of our 4 x 8 Photo Cards designed as a calendar. When other holiday cards have been boxed up or thrown away, your greeting will stay front and center. The following four 4 x 8 templates were designed by Lynda Angelastro and make the perfect gift and greeting combos: template 90887 “2013 Gift/Card Calendar 1” (available in same style with QR code template 98763) and on the right template 90888, “2013 Gift/Card Calendar 2” (also available with QR code as template 98764). Keeping Your Family on Track
If you’re making a calendar for your own busy family, try this one from Kelly Wolfer. Called “2013 Family Grid Calendar,” this 11 x 16 calendar is template 97681 and is topped by the same photos for each month—one for each member of the family. With a column for each loved one, dentist appointments, soccer practices, haircuts and more can be entered in the appropriate column for at-a-glance organization. Calendars of Every Kind Understand what you need for your personal use or the gift you’re giving and finding the template that’s right for you is fast and easy. You’ll find many similar offerings for each of these calendar groups in the Heritage Makers Template Gallery. You’ve still got time to make some for your loved ones for this holiday season. |
