Calendar Art

I call it calendar art because it's art...made from a calendar.

Deep, I know.

I've done this for years and it's one of my favorite ways to introduce one-of-a-kind art into my decor.

Sometimes they are from used calendars from years past and sometimes I buy calendars specifically to cut them up and frame them.

I'm kind of obsessed.

Italia

Vintage Pin Ups

Travel

I must admit this is not the cheapest way to buy artwork in that framing can be a bit spendy especially when you're doing 6 at once, but I LOVE how they turn out!

Anyone else ever turn their calendars into artwork?

  1. I HAVE done this!! :)

    I recently bought a calendar to profit the American Heart Association and they were beautiful enough that I cut the calendar to pieces and made art from them for a friend!

  7. I used to do that all the time! My very first apartment had them all over the walls and even a few in frame on shelves! I used to go nuts over the vintage ones, pin-ups, trucks, phones, etc... LOVE, looks great!
