Our, calenders plays the role of staying organized, planning daily activities, and remembering important dates. I thought it would be fun to make an easy DIY Perpetual Calender. It’s super easy and it cost almost nothing to make.
Marshalls had a 50% off after Easter sale. I thoought this plaque/box would be a great start to making my calender.
Here are some supplies you will need….
After priming and spray painting my box black. I decided to add some black/gold stripe gift wrap paper for dimension. Measure the inside of the box width and length.
Black spray paint was used on the gift tags. You can also use chalkboard paint. Mylar letters/numbers can be purchased at Home Depot. They are peel & stick which made it easy to add them to the gift tags. The gold goes really nice with the black and gold gift wrap paper.
Using the gift tags as a guide to make a mark of where the c-hooks would go. I placed them evenly so the tags would look straight.
Although, we have the convenience of our cell phones to tell us the day. I still think it’s fun to have a Perpetual Calender and it looks good on any desk.
