CALENDAR

Materials -​
  • 3 Small Adhesive Hooks

  • 26 Gift Tags

  • Card Stock Paper

  • Glue Stick

  • Golden (or color of choice) Transfer Letters & Numbers

  • Paintbrush

  • Sponge Brush

  • Watercolor Paints

  • White Acrylic Paint

  • ​Shoebox

Instructions:
  1. Paint the shoebox with white acrylic paint and let dry.

  2. While waiting for the shoebox to dry, paint the gift tags (hint: paint one line of color at the bottom of the gift tag, coat the rest of the gift tag with water, and hold the gift tag upside down so the color runs into the water).

  3. Once the gift tags are dry, use the glue stick to paste the golden transfers onto the gift tag.

  4. Glue a piece of card stock paper to the back of the wooden box (hint: try picking something with a subtle pattern and neutral colors so the gift tags stand out).

  5. Attach the hooks onto the card stock and hang the gift tags on the hooks.

A calendar is essential to life in college. Whether it's for keeping track of exam dates or remembering birthdays, a calendar is a great organizational tool.
