Event Calendar -- Gift for a Man

Our son-in-law admired an event calendar I had made for our daughter,

so I surprised him with a masculine version for his December birthday.

He's going to hang it in his office and ask each of his patients

to add his or her birthday to the calendar.

What a thoughtful gesture!

The CTMH event calendar (perpetual) makes a great gift for anyone--

I don't know what I'd do without mine...

You never need to re-write special birthdays/anniversaries on calendars

once you make and use one of these!

Perpetual Event Calendar & December SOTM

I just finished a few of these perpetual event calendars for Christmas gifts. The Close To My Heart Event Calendar comes with a blank section on top of each month for you to decorate in any way you choose.  

The papers I selected are some of my favorites--some are retired, and some are from the Autumn/Winter Idea Book. The Stamps are from December's Stamp of the Month--"Year Round Cheer."

This was a fun project! Once I measured and cut all the paper pieces, the assembly was easy. So you can make 6 or more of these in one half a day!

A perpetual calendar is a great gift because it never needs to be discarded. The recipient can jot birthday/anniversary names and/or special events beside each numerical date. It makes it very quick and easy to see whose special day is coming up, and how many cards to make ahead of time!
