3 month calendar



I have been looking for years to find a 3 month dry erase calendar that I like. You can order them online but they can get pricey, and they look like they belong in an office. Well, this one was VERY simple and just what I wanted. I found 12 x 12 scrapbook paper at Porters in Idaho Falls that had the calendar grid already printed right on them. I bought this 12 x 36 frame at Michaels and just simply put the scrapbook paper inside with a little tape to connect each paper. Instead of a dry erase marker I got a wet erase chalk marker at Hobby Lobby. It stays on the glass so much better. It's almost like paint but it's erasable. You could also add reusable stickers to go with the theme of each month. (I'm still working on that!) Anyways...I just love it, so I thought I would share this easy idea.

Years ago I made this magnetic board out of a piece of canvas. Now with my calendar on the opposite wall I think they work well together. Now I have the tools to be organized...I just hope it can happen!
