i {heart} shutterfly

for christmas, the boy and i made a family calendar for mom & dad wright. it’s one of my favourite gifts i’ve ever given, and it was recieved with pure joy. we were skyping with the boy’s parents on christmas day and loved seeing how much they loved our gift.

we made the calendar on shutterfly, and it was so easy and incredibly customizable. i am a big fan of shutterfly (we love the wedding books we created with them) and the calendar-making experience made me an even bigger one. i got to choose exactly what i thought my in-laws would most enjoy in a family calendar, and the final product turned out amazing.

   

each month of the calendar includes pictures of family members who celebrate birthdays and/or anniversaries that month (as well as a note in the day on the grid below, of course!). my mother-in-law is super psyched to hang her new calendar in her kitchen to keep track of day-to-day events along with really important family dates!

a really great tidbit about shutterfly calendars is that you can start them any month of the year, so this awesome gift isn’t just to be given in december! and there’s toooons of other cool things (mugs, phone cases, mason jars) you can personalize with pictures and text.

shutterfly is having a great sale right now that ends today – hop over to their site to explore all the cool things that you can create, and then gift or keep for your own!
