D-I-Y tutorial: The Many Faces of the Month

**This tutorial was first posted on PW's homeschool section on her blog.**

I have another D-I-Y tutorial for you all this afternoon.  Super easy.  Super fun.

What you'll need:

(in addition to this you will need yarn or sting, paper clips.)


  • 28 (or how many days are in that month) of your favorite pictures.  
  • Paperclips
  • 2 x 4 envelopes (original tutorial called for 2 1/2 x 4 1/4 dimensions but you can find something close)
  • yarn or sting.
  • tacks
  • scissors
  • glue stick.

What to do:

Start out with your envelopes and a picture of your choice.  Glue the envelope to the back of the photo, and cut along the edges of the envelope so it looks like this:

Be sure to cut the little edge off at the very top of your envelope.

Continue this until you get 28 (or 30 or 31!) pictures with envelopes.  **Be sure to cut off the tops like I didn't do until after!**

Next, you need to figure out the spot you're going to put this calendar in.  

Now you'll also need your string, tacks and paperclips.

Attach the envelope photos to your hanging yarn/string using the paperclips.  Take note cards, cut them into 2x4 size, and add in your plans for that day,

Such a fun and easy tutorial!!

The original tutorial can be found here.

Have fun calendar making!!
