2008 Calendar Guide

In 2008 you will remember every birthday, every tooth cleaning, every oil change and tune-up. Your mother will get flowers; you will turn your mattress; you will schedule your vacation months in advance. We pick the calendars that will help.

(And while you’re deciding on the right calendar for 2008, take a look at the Decor8 calendar roundups, Part I and Part II, as well. Good stuff.)

• Recycled 2008 Refill for AAGK100

  

  Old school calendar technology. Don’t forget about the classics.

  I have a baby project going with these calendar refill pages. I give one to the boy and snap his photo. At the end of the year, I’ll have a little album of how he looked from week to week without having to keep track of exact dates. Especially great for the first year and birthdays.
