DIY Calendar

Hey! So, I realized I (Lexa) never got a calendar this year, and so, instead of spending my money on buying one, I decided to see if I can figure out how to make one! I searched through a bunch of websites, but most of them you had to buy supplies, or it was really complicated, or it took up too much space, things like that. So eventually I gave up. Then, I had an idea for my own! It is really simple, and doesn't require a lot of supplies! So, here it is.

Supplies:

• Small notebook that flips back (where the spiral is at the top)
• Colored pencils or markers
• Straight edge (I just used the side of a book, since I couldn't find my ruler 😂)

And that's actually all!

Instructions:

Note: It is probably just easiest to use the picture as a model instead of using the directions

Step 1: Flip to the second page, leaving the first one blank
Step 2: Write the name of the month on the top
Step 3: Separate it into 7 sections. Separate each of those into 2 sections, one of them being smaller
Step 4: In the smaller section, write the date
Step 5: Do this with each week
Step 6: Fill in your schedule!

Please note: I didn't do the whole year at once, so please don't think you have to! I told myself to do maybe a month or two a day, and I filled in my schedule as I went.

And, in case anyone is wondering how to do the last week of the month when it isn't a full week, here is how I did it:

You could even print off a picture to put on the bottom, or whatever you want!
