How to get started
Sort Photos by Season
Quickly spot your favourite photos from the digital pile by sorting them by season. We love pairing winter photos with the colourful Christmas lights in the Woodblock Seasons collection. A classic palette of green, blue, red, and yellow, provides a fun background for your snapshots. Here’s a cheat sheet of photo combinations to get you started:
- Winter: Ski trips, winter walks, hot cocoa with marshmallows, kids wrapped in blankets
- Spring: Egg hunts, flower fields, patterned umbrellas
- Summer: Parties in the park, beach days, refreshing smoothies and ice lollies
- Autumn: Back to school photos, Halloween parties, changing tree colours
Spot the shapes
Look for patterns in your photos (circles, lines, even flowers) that would look nice against the vibrant backgrounds in the Geometric Brights design collection. The designs are bold and beautiful, so focus on backgrounds that will complement, not compete with, your photos.
Choose coordinating colours
Select photos that have bright accents (an orange scarf, a purple jumper) and pair them with coordinating vibrant backdrops. We ❤ the deep red heart pattern in Geometric Seasons: perfect for anniversary photos or as a romantic February theme.
Upload your photos or scanned images to our online calendar builder, decide the month you want your calendar to start from and select your initial calendar design theme. You can customise further with mixing up calendar themes by month.
Remember to add photos to specific dates on your creative wall calendars, so you don’t forget that important anniversary or birthday ever again!
It’s so easy to share the calendar joy with everyone in the family! Design one custom calendar, and order multiples to give to cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, and even pets! You can further personalise your calendar creations for Aunty Mary, Uncle Joe and even little Susan! Just select ‘Save as’ in the top toolbar and make custom changes to suit each recipient before you add them to the cart for payment.
