Making my own calendars


Posted: Jan 2, 2013

Does anybody else make their own calendars?  I normally would go out and buy 5 to 6 calendars (cheap ones from the dollar stores), but this year I am just feeling creative.  I actually got out my digital camera, which I have had for 4 years and never used, and started taking pictures of my cats and would like to try printing calendar pages and hanging them around the house instead of the store-bought ones.  Any idea what software to use?  I tried HP photo creations, came with my computer, but not real happy with the results.  I haven't really looked up any free software yet, just looking for ideas.  Can you use powerpoint?  Any ideas appreciated.  Thanks!;

try Vista Prints.... - they may have something available

like that or to be able to do that. They may charge, but I dont think they are expensive. maybe also office depot or office max...they may have a service like that, as well.

google/bing - "how to make your own calendar"

Bet you will find lots of suggestions and ideas, maybe even tutorials. I've seen homemade ones by creative people (tho I'm not one of them) and the possibilities are endless. Have fun creating!

Thanks - OP

Making A WillAug 12, 2010
How many of you have set aside time to make your final wishes known?  I kept saying I was going to do it, and today at least I have written in a tablet all vital information my family needs to know, phone numbers, bank info, etc.  Money is so limited, but I want to have a formal will done very soon. I saw firsthand what confusion comes of not letting people know simple things.  There are so many details, and I am going to make things as easy on everyone as possible.  I ...

Regarding In-Laws, Making Sure You Do Not Become That MIL.Oct 28, 2010
I have been very careful with my daughter and her husband.  I do not pry and do not give advice unless I am asked.  I am careful to say, "Do you think..." or "I wonder....."  Sometimes my daughter comes to me with their problems and I am quick to say, "You guys need to discuss this, or maybe "This is none of my business," or "I should not be commenting on this."  This has served me well and my daughter and I are very close even though she is busy with small children and ...

Bread Making QuestionsJul 17, 2014
Years ago I loved to make bread and have several favorite recipes.

Any advice on this would be appreciated.  I am becoming alarmed ab ...

Are You Happy Making Minimum Wage?Feb 09, 2017
The Iowa Republican controlled state legislature is pushiing a bill to freeze the minimum wage at $7.25 and rescind local wage increases that have already been passed.  This should make the big MTSOs very happy.  How about you?   Do you think your work is only worth $7.25 a hour? I think these Republicans think that the only people making 7.25 an hour are burger flippers.   I know, there are MTs always willing to brag about their line counts, etc.  I know, however, th ...
