new life for old calendars

This a super simple project and a great way to repurpose images from old calendars (and keep the table clean too). Turn your old calendar images into placemats. All you need are pages from old calendars, a pair of scissors to cut them to the correct size and laminating sheets. Tape or glue two calendar images together so that the sides you want to view are facing out. Cover the images on both sides with laminating sheets, cut, and voila! Instant gratification. For the past hree years we have repurposed our Unicef kids calendars this way for both home use and as take home birthday party favors. Of course other calendars will do too!
