Making a Photo Calendar; If I Can Do It, So Can You! January 23, 2009

grandkids-calendar-picturesDo you like taking pictures but are looking for something to do with all the photos you have?  That’s where I was not too long ago.  I’m constantly taking pictures, and I get some great shots (if I do say so myself!).  But, then I started thinking, what good are all these beautiful pictures if they just sit on my hard drive, or even are put away in an album; and I have only so much wall space!

So, I started researching my options.  That’s when I came across the idea for photo calendars.   When I made my first calendar, I thought it would be difficult (I’m not all that experienced with using computers), but, it wasn’t!  I had a lot of fun and found out, to my surprise, that making a photo calendar is really, really easy!

Now that I know what I’m doing, I figured it might help some others out there to have a set of step-by-step instructions they can refer to when creating their own photo calendar.  So, I sat down and wrote out everything I know about how to make a photo calendar.  You’ll find directions for uploading your photos (which most feel is the most complicated aspect of making a photo calendar) and for putting together your calendar, as well as some ideas for themes for your photo calendar.

So try it, make a photo calendar for yourself, or, to give someone as a gift.  I’m willing to bet you won’t make just one!

 

Saving Money on Your Photo Calendar January 10, 2009

money-saving3Generally, when I make a photo calendar, I like to use Snapfish.com and Shutterfly.com.  For me, these 2 sites are the easiest to use and make the highest quality products from my photos.

Recently, I found out that I could save a good bit of money by using a Shutterfly.com or  Snapfish.com coupon when checking out with my photo calendar order; and I know I’m not the only thrifty bargain hunter out there, so I wanted to make sure to pass this info along to all of you so you can save money when using these online photo sites too!
