Create a Calendar - Am I too late for Christmas ?

[crystaltips]

Has any one heard of the company that makes a calendar using your own photos ?

I would like to send some to the kids' Grandparents and Great Grandparents - Makes a change from ties and chocolates

Have I missed the deadline for Christmas do you think ? Thanks a lot

Jaybee - would they do it for "outsiders" like us? I've seent hem for £20 - £5 is much better!!!

They are currently doing them in the print room at my work - 12 photos, spiral bound for £5.00. From either digital photos or normal ones - where do you live?

Have you got access to digital photos, a colour printer and a computer with microsoft publisher on it? If so, it's dead easy to do it yourself.

You can get them from Photobox - last orders 17th December - from only £3.50 for a single page one or £19.99 for 12 page spiral bound.

I would have thought boots might do something like this?

Anyway if you find you have missed the deadline why not try making your own. We did it one year and it was great. You just need to scan photos in or use a digital camera and make sure you print out on hightest resolution on good quality card. You can find templates for calanders in word and I think in powerpoint - thats what we used. I then went to a normal printers and got them ringbound for about £2. We are thining about doing a CD this year but not sure we'll get around to it now.

Hi Crystaltips,
We have used freeserve photos to have some of our digital photographs processed. They do a calendar with 12 photos in it for £19.99, I think they deliver in 3-4 days. We were very impressed with the service they gave us, photos were delivered the next day. The web address is www.photos.freeserve.com. Hope this helps.

Okay, here are the companies I found:

www.personalised-designs.co.uk/pnotelets.htm

www.presents.fsnet.co.uk/other.htm

www.kalend.co.uk/kalend_calendars.htm

www.hamptonprint.f9.co.uk/photocal/yourphotos.htm

Can't vouch for the companies or advise if you've missed the deadline, but probably worth a browse! Good luck, and what a lovely idea!

WH Smiths have a calendar that you can put your own photos into, if that's what you want? HTH.

I think Great Little Trading company do this. I have a feeling you might have missed the deadline though. I'm sure someome else will know more.
