Why can't I buy a stylish family memo board/planner for our kitchen?

I want a nice looking memo board/planner type thing but can't find one anywhere. Also want a month to view planner (all decent ones are week to view)

'Tis not the season for memo boards/ wall planners. They are a Christmas gift must-have.

What style do you like OP? That book/card selling company (what their name?) the ones that pop up at every craft fair/ school fete ... I'll get back to you because they sell them.

Phoenix?

That's it Berry ! Not everyone's taste though.
I've just typed in 'month to view wall planner' and there are loads on-line OP. Probably nothing in shops though.

I want one to.

Couldn't you make one? could just put up a large mirror and use dry wipe pens on it?

I made one. I got a big, cheap Ikea frame and a packet of scrapbooking paper.

I used the paper to cover the board and then used my computer to print out 12 separate months, like this:

    January

1 15__
2 16__

etc

I didn't do days of the week so that it can be a perpetual calendar.

Then I stuck the months on the calendar - I did them a bit wonky and overlapping, but you could do them straight and evenly-spaced.

Cover on and whiteboard pen and job's a good'un!

Phoenix is exactly what I am after for a memo board, thanks. I'll have to put the calendar next to it

DH made one with 2 sheets of A3.
Not sure that's "stylish" though, lol.
