REPURPOSE CALENDAR PAGES

Welcome, it's been awhile posting to my blog.  In the process of cleaning my crafty/supple areas, I came across "LOTS" of Old Calendars I've saved.
Wanted to show you a way to have some fun with them.
I separated the pages by taking the staples out, Cutting the pages in half.  Pretty side down, 1st fold in left/right edges 3/4 of an inch, worked best for me.  I put the hole on top if you want to ;use a brad and string to open and close. Or at the bottom if sealing shut.  and fold down 2 3/4 inches to make a fold
2nd fold from the bottom to meet the this fold.  
3rd  Glue sides together....can insert a brad and add string, (maybe use reinforced self adhesive) You can color them or buy them in colors (BUT I can't find mine)


It was easier to work with the thinner papered calendar, than the textured heavier ones. But the heavier ones will hold up better.  Use for gift giving, journal pages, storing paper treasures.  
Thanks for stopping by.  Have fun creating.

Sorry to be late to the party! I've been busy with Fall clean up and now having issues with my back! Definitely got a hitch in my git along! This is a great idea...I've been playing with lining my homemade envelopes with pretty papers from my stash!
