What you'll need:
- 8 x 11-inch frame

Step 1: Print calendar
Simply print this calendar in color from your nearby printer.
If you want to make this a magnetic calendar, simply print it on a full-size magnet sheet.
Step 2: Place calendar in frame
Remove the glass front of the frame and slide the calendar in.
If you need to, cut out the white edges from your print so it fits perfectly in the frame.
Slide the glass over it so you can easily write on it.
If you go the magnetic route, leave the glass off the frame so you can attach magnets.
