That satisfying flip of a calendar page can signify so much. New seasons, new adventures, and new beginnings. We asked the pros to put a fresh spin on our beloved calendars and show off new photo calendar<\/a> designs for 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n

1. Instagram-Friendly Layouts<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n

Perfect for showcasing your best Instagrams, this square layout against a simple white backdrop will make your photos shine. Shelby of Pretty in the Pines<\/a> created an 11×17″ (L) Wall Calendar<\/a> with photos from her wedding to surprise her new hubby and spruce up his office. We\u2019re ready to cosy up and create our own heartfelt gifts\u2014pass the hot chocolate, please.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cThere were a lot of different styles to choose from (seasonal, speciality, simple) but I went with the [simplest] layout for a classic can\u2019t-go-wrong look. It was super easy and quick to insert photos into each layout and choose whether I wanted one, two, three, or four photos per page. I loved customizing it even more with the specific dates within each month, including birthdays and anniversaries.\u201d \u2013 Pretty in the Pines<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

One of the many perks of making calendars as gifts is that they take up very little room when transporting presents to multiple Christmas gatherings. Terra of Love and La Rock<\/a> printed out multiple copies of her stunning Chalkboard Seasons calendar<\/a>, pleased that it\u2019s a budget friendly way to please the parents!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cThe design process was super easy and took me less than 30 minutes. You can either upload photos directly from your desktop, or easily import them from your Facebook or Instagram. There were hundreds of design options and embellishments that make customization a breeze. We did a few different versions of the calendar that you see in these photos, making it personalized for each family member. I loved how they turned out so much that I got us one to hang up at our house too!\u201d \u2013 Love and La Rock<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Tip<\/strong>: Click the \u201cSave As\u201d button in the builder when creating your original calendar to customize a new copy for each family member.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Florals for the Family<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n

Pictures of grandchildren are always a winning gift, according to Tabitha Lane<\/a>. She created a calendar for her parents using the one of our floral design. We love how the coral, sage, and lemongrass colours border the photo of her kiddo. We\u2019re excited to debut new calendar creation upgrades since last year\u2014photo borders make your pics pop, the background designs now extend to the bottom grid, and adding a photo to personalise a special date is easier than ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI\u2019m so in love with the photo calendar that I made, so much so that I think I may need one for myself. Looking at it helps me remember how much I love my little troublemaker even when she colors all over everything and spills my hot chocolate all over my pants in the middle of a photo shoot. Our life is messy and unmade, but at least with a pretty calendar I can keep my schedule together. I cannot tell you the amount of doggy obedience classes that I\u2019ve missed because they literally fell out of my head\u2014and who wants to remember their to-do list on a Saturday??\u201d \u2013 Tabitha Lane<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

4. Colour-by-Calendar<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n
\n
\"Beautiful<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

The Colouring Book Calendar<\/a> debuted last year, and we\u2019re seeing that it\u2019s a hit again this year. This photo calendar design allows you to get creative with all types of artistic media \u2013 crayons, coloured pencils, markers, glitter, glue, feathers\u2026a kid can go crazy. Zoe with Love<\/a> even paired each month with a family recipe to remind her what kid-friendly snacks to make all season long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cSnapfish makes it so convenient because you can upload directly from Instagram and Facebook! Plus, I love that you have the option to use additional photos in the calendar to mark special occasions such as birthdays, anniversaries and holidays. I think I can speak for most of us when I say I have more photos than I know what to do with and this is one great way to use them!\u201d \u2013 Zoe With Love<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
