I have been making these calendars for 4 years and every year I have more requests. The bases for the calendars are coasters like you would get for your drink at a restaurant or bar. We did a group buy of these several years ago at Split Coast Stampers. They measure 4" square. I cover both sides with cardstock and their weight and sturdiness add stability to the calendar and enable it to sit up on its own.
Here's this year's cover.
Next are some of my favorite months from the past several years. I've used supplies from a large variety of sources. If you have a question about a specific month, please leave me a comment and I'll track it down for you.
Thanks for stopping by!

Oh, I LOVE it! I think I definitely may have to try this :)
This is so awesome! These would make a great gift!
Such a great gift!! Any idea where I might be able to find the coasters? I'd love to make some for the holidays this year :)
Pat, these are great. Really, really great! I can see why your requests are multiplying! Do you print the little calendar part from your computer? Or buy them? Sorry to add to your questions, but I would really like to try my hand at this idea!
Wow, your coastal calendar is awesome! Perfect Xmas gift! Any recipient would be so happy. Thanks for showing us your work!
Hi Pat, thanks so much for sharing!!
The calender is great!! I definitely want to make a couple too for x-mas gifts this year! Can't wait to get started!
Best wishes
That's such a cool idea - very original and truly a great gift!
That looks gorgeous, I think I may have enough beer mats to get started today!!
How cute is this idea. I have a whole bag of plain unused coasters downstairs that might have to have the dust wiped off. Fantastic!!!
really pretty...love that cute little bunny behind:)
This is so FABULOUS Pat! At first I thought it was on some kind of "stand", but it looks like just the coasters with holes punched and rings added! I'd love to have something pretty like this to sit on my desk, I might have to make one ;) TFS!
This is an amazing project! I bet this took alot of work! Lots of great details! I love it!
These are really great! Perfect little gifts. Thanks so much for sharing!
