I received a couple of questions asking for ideas on how to display the 2013 Calendar Kits. In years past, I’ve mounted them on the wall. This is what I have up now for 2012.
The photos were adhere to the wall using 3M Command Poster strips. I highly recommend them. They hold up great, I’ve never had a problem with any photos falling. And taking them off is just as easy and doesn’t damage the wall or the photo.
I think I’m going to do something different for 2013, a simple display for the desk. I’d love to see how you’ve been displaying your paislee press calendars and would love to share your displays here on the blog!

Hi Liz! I already purchased my 2013 calendar but thought I’d still share how I displayed my PP calendar from last year. I used a simple wood desktop picture/plate holder and plan to do the same again for this year. Here is a link to the pictures: http://www.flickr.com/photos/37921154@N07/
I also gave the calendar to our family for Christmas gifts last year and happy to report it was a big hit!
Oh so gorgeous Carly. I love the simplicity of that display, it’s perfect!! Thanks so much for sharing.
I purchased last year and never got around to displaying 🙁 I am determined to get it done this year for sure. Off to buy my kit!!!

Or you could play around with some style shots using this year’s kit and post pics here. If you win, you won’t have to buy the kit 🙂
Love that idea! However, I think I am leaning towards the poster size calendar this year. I can’t wait to see it when you release it! 🙂
I had a similar calendar {that I made myself in PSE} and I punched a hole in the top with a ring. 🙂 Just set in on my desk, but the ring kept it all together.
I displayed the calender in my kitchen, but don’t know if I ever got a photo of it displayed! I printed them in 5 x 7 and just mounted on the side of one my cabinets (that houses my fridge). after the year was over, I put 3 of my favorites in a 3-photo frame that I got from a thrift store….
Oh… I would love to win a copy of this! I’d give them as gifts but now I’m thinking of including some display suggestions ><
Thanks for the opportunity to win…
Helen do you have a photo of last years (or any years prior) kit on display? You’ll need to submit one to qualify for this giveaway. May apologies if I didn’t make that clear in the post.
I would love to win the 2013 kit! They make the best gifts. Here is my 2012 PP Calendar displayed in our dining room. I’ve hung each month from a clip on a vintage pants hanger. http://flic.kr/p/de4jvP
love that vintage hanger Megan, what a brilliant idea!

Mine is a 8×10 matted frame, on my sewing table in my office.
Saw it, LOVE IT. 🙂 Thanks so much for sharing!
Here’s mine, Liz. I love simple clean look of the white IKEA frame:

Fantastic!!
I gave copies of my calendar as Christmas gifts to colleagues at work. They’ve displayed them in a variety of ways – some have one month up at a time, others like the look of the calendar all laid out together. Here is a photo of my friend’s desk. It adds a little color to the cube walls and I love seeing my photos posted around the office all year. http://www.flickr.com/photos/nicoleishida/8027132838/in/photostream
So beautiful Nicole, love seeing all the different ways it’s been displayed in your office!
forgot to tell you how much I love your photos too. 🙂
I love your templates and have them displayed in several places. Last year with the photo gifts I gave a 4×6 magnet pocket for family to hang as well (photo of that is not included but thought I would share).

Hi Liz, I love your calendars, normally I gave them as the gifts to my family… unfortunately the one of this year was impossible to take photos of as it’s quite far away from me but I achived to take pics of the one from the last year. It was a gift for my small cousin. She absolutely loved it and my whole family, too and I love the idea that I made it myself, The photos were laminated so they can last longer. Here is the photo sorry for the quality but I had to take the pics really fast with not my camera. the link: http://i765.photobucket.com/albums/xx295/asali_pl/paisleepresscalendar.jpg
i’v came on your blog to look for next calendar and so I stoped to put my mini in your flickr gallery.

I’m so glad you extended the contest! I use the 5×7 size and put them in these super cheapie plastic stand-up frames from Walmart so that it’s easy to switch to the new month. I give them to family and my closest friends every year, and have one set on my desk at home (pictured) and one at my day job. 🙂 http://www.flickr.com/photos/trudem/6080379865/in/pool-paisleepress
I remember this from last year, thank you for sharing!
P.S. I’ve been thinking about using magnetic frames for next year’s set, so they can be on the fridge. We’ll see… 🙂
Trude, that is a GREAT idea, i love it!
