Calendars make me happy. People I love make me happy. Put the two together and it’s a winning combination! I got to try out this 2014 Michaels Recollections Calendar Kit (available for $39.99 exclusively at Michaels stores) and it’s a fun and easy way to build a personalized calendar.
Here’s what comes in the kit:
- Binder book
- 12 tabbed month dividers
- 12 month pages
- 12 clear, pocketed photo pages
- Beautifully colored, double sided cards.
- 14-4×6 and 28 3×4 Including Christmas, Hanukkah, Canada Day, Valentine’s, Thanksgiving….
- Holiday and event stickers
- Black pen (and a place to store it!)
What I liked about it:
- The binder style lets you easily organize each month
- It hangs on the wall, but then you can close it all up, put it in the original box for easy storage at the end of the year
- The pen stays right there!
- It’s so easy to put one page together–pick 3 cards, a couple of pictures and you’re good to go. Add in journaling, washi tape or other embellishments if you want, but they look great without those things too 🙂
What else is great about this calendar kit is you can use it a couple of different ways. Obviously, you could use it as a scheduling calendar. But it would also make an awesome birthday calendar. Fill the page with pictures of people with a birthday that month, write theirs names on the dates, and you’ll never forget another birthday again. Either way, it makes a creative and thoughtful gift for Mom or Grandma for Christmas!
