Holiday gifting: Mini calendars

Giving out these mini desk calendars has become a holiday tradition at work.  My co-workers love them--they're useful and don't take up much desk space, and they're relatively easy to make.  I buy the PDF from this wonderful etsy seller each year, then we head on to Kinkos to print them out on cardstock, cut them out (BK's a paper cutter master), and put them into these little clear plastic business card holders.  If you don't feel like going through all those steps, you can also just buy sets from the etsy seller.

2012 Mini Desk Calendar

These mini desk calendars make great gifts for coworkers.  I give them out every year and everyone seems to like and use them a lot.  Etsy has many wonderful sellers that you can buy them from, prepackaged and ready to go.  Or if you love to DIY, you can purchase templates, print them out and assemble them yourself. 

The template I used this year (and last) is from Lemonade Paperie--I love the little graphics and attention to detail (like the flag on the 4th of July and the four leaf clover on St. Patrick's!)

Calendars

My organized soul loves a good calendar and here are 

two favorites that were gifts this year from B's family.  

First, a lovely tea towel calendar that I had posted about before here.  

It is even more vibrant in person and makes a pretty addition to the kitchen.

B got an awesome Mizzou calendar that features 

vintage programs from his favorite football team

How fun that both our alma maters played each other so long ago!
