Calendar Printing

[Stacey Jewell Stahl]

I would like to make calendars this year for my mom and sisters, but I've never gotten them printed before. It looks like most of the stores that sell printed calendars have their own templates and I can't upload custom ones. I'd like to spend less than $20 on each one.

Does anyone have a source for calendar printing that they'd share with me?

Thanks!
Stacey

Stacey...couldn't you just have them printed on double sided glossy paper then bind them, then you could have anysize you wanted. You would of course have to be careful with the layout of the printing, I always mess up on that when printing both double sided and having to have them in a certain order. Anyways just a thought. Calendars are sooo much fun, especially when they are about your fam!!!! Have fun making them, can't wait to see the finished product.

I usually do 8x10 and print at home, then take to Kinkos to bind them for me.

But... if you want to do more obscure sizes, try printing at Costco. They have REALLY good prices, then you can trim them and bind yoursef.

UPS stores will make copies from disk and then bind if you like. I did this several years ago.

Amy told me about this place last year and they did a good job with mine and pretty cheap. You can use your layouts or their templates for both the top and bottom.

Use artscow, when you sign up they give you wicked coupons. I had calendars printed last year for less then 10 dollars each.

Top line is a link -- there is software you can download so that you can enter your special dates and your photos before uploading to them.

I also have Broderbund's Print Shop and have printed many calendars on card stock -- I bought the binder punch and binding clips -- they turn out quite nice! I've made one for my DD's grandma for several years.

Thanks for the suggestions! I just bought the quick page calendars based on the artscow pricing. Can't wait to make this project for my mom and sisters and me.

THANKS!
