Made for crafting, gifting and everyday use
Each calendar is printed on sturdy 250gsm white card, designed to cope with layers of paper, photos, embellishments and regular handling throughout the year. The generous blank panels give you space to build up layouts without the pages buckling, making them ideal for keepsake gifts as well as everyday planners.
Because the designs arrive blank, you can keep things simple and minimal or go all‑out with colour, texture and dimension. Decorate them yourself, craft together with children or gift a calendar undecorated so the recipient can enjoy personalising every month.
Craft essentials to decorate your calendar
Pair your calendar with coordinating papermilldirect card and papers to make decorating easy. Build a palette with our Pick & Mix Boxes or add variety and value with an Offcuts box which are perfect for layering, die‑cutting and creating small accents on each page.
For attaching photos, mats and embellishments, a strong dry adhesive is ideal. A roll of Stick It! ultra‑clear double‑sided tape keeps elements securely in place and gives a neat, professional finish with no mess or drying time.
Ideas and inspiration for your pages
There are countless ways to personalise your Create‑a‑Calendar. Try a photo‑per‑month layout with favourite memories, seasonal snapshots or pet portraits, or mix photos with stamped images and die‑cut shapes. Colour‑coordinate each page with themed cards and paper, soft pastels for spring, brights for summer, rich tones for autumn and metallic accents for Christmas. Visit our inspire page for more craft inspiration.
Your calendar can also double as a practical planner. Use the blank panel for monthly to‑do lists, goals, habit trackers or important reminders you want visible at a glance. Whether you choose a compact desk style or an A3 statement piece, papermilldirect calendars give you a durable, creative base for a year of organised crafting.
