Cool calendar

Coheed and Cambria - "Welcome Home"

So I saw this neat artsy fartsy calendar on photojojo.com and decided that Eric's blank condo walls could use a little bit of pizzaz. a) it's functional and b) it's easy — two qualities that are essential to the lazy wannabe crafty person like me.

Neat way to add some spice to an otherwise dull wall, and it's just awesome on so many levels.


All you have to do is take your camera out with you and take pictures of any number you see between 1-31. Get a few clips and put it all together, and throw in a few extra photos that are meaningful to you for the blank days of the month. Every time the month changes, you just rearrange the numbers. It's a simple matter of swapping the columns around since certain numbers will always be in the same column like 1, 8, 15, 22, 29 and 2, 9, 16, 23, 30, etc...

If anyone else tries it, let me know how it turns out!

This is quite easily one of Eric's all time favorite gifts!

Not only does it make a nifty calendar, it also has awesometastic pictures of me and Jo! Note the ones in the top left and bottom right, they're my favorite.
