My 2014 FlipOver Calendar
is now available at Oscraps.
Here are some quick
instructions on how to make a stand for your FlipOver Calendar.
Get your tools
together.
You need:
cardboard, ruler, scissors,
glue, tape, punch and albumrings.
Get your cardboard,
scissors and a ruler
Draw your calendarstand.
You need two rectangular
pieces of cardboard,
Size 10 inches long,
and 4,5 inches wide.
Draw a folding line 2,5
inches from the bottom.
Cut out the 2 pieces of
your stand.
Use a bone folder tool (or
and old icecrream stick) to make the fold line.
Get your printed calendar
and carefully mark the holes and punch them out.
Glue the 2 bottom pieces of
the stand together.
Or staple them together to
make it stronger.
Tape the top side of the stand
together, between to holes
and place the album rings (or use a string or
ribbon).
Hang your calendar, et
voila!
Congrats, you finished your
calendar stand and created your own FlipOver Calendar.
You can always use a
fancier piece of cardboard to create your stand, or decorate/paint it, but for
this tutorial I just (re)used a regular piece of cardboard.
If you want an even fancier
stand, this Calendar fits the IKEA Tolsby Frame perfectly. It sells for 1
dollar/1 euro/1 pound. I live close to IKEA so ofcourse I had to use it.
