I absolutely love buying gifts for all the special people in my life…except for the men! I’m always on the look-out for gifts I can make (because homemade is best, right?!) but that are also functionally geared toward males. Let me tell you, it definitely is not easy to do! That’s why I love this Coffee Lover 2017 printable calendar, it’s easy to put together and I know tons of people, both men and women, who would love to get this minimal and modern gift.
Supplies needed to make your own 2017 printable calendar:
- 6×8 inch Copper Photo Frame
- Coffee Lover 2017 Printable Calendar (do not select fit to page for printing)
- Coffee Lover Calendar Label
- Paper Trimmer
First things first, you’re going to want to print and trim the Coffee Lover 2017 printable calendar. Each sheet should be 4″ x 6″ (print with trim marks to make it easier to cut) and can either be just the front or front/back.
Once all the papers have been trimmed, just place inside of the copper frame and secure with latch. I’m totally in love with this frame by the way!!!
If you’re planning on giving this as a gift, I’ve created a handy gift wrapper to really make this gift stand out. People will totally think you bought this at a trendy little store downtown!
The only thing to keep in mind with this label is that you’ll have to account for the little latch handle when wrapping around the frame. Just punch a little hole for the latch and you’ll be good to go.
Such an easy last minute gift, right?! The copper frame comes with the leather ribbon so you can either keep that or switch out for another ribbon if you’d like. I love it just the way it is though! Another great thing about this project is that you can totally reuse the frame for pictures once the calendar is done. Or if your gift recipient isn’t actually a coffee fan they can throw the calendar away and just keep the gorgeous frame. Hope you enjoy this Coffee Lover 2017 printable calendar!
