Final Calendar

So... it was quite a bit of process finishing off my calendar.
I honestly was very happy with my project, but Pornprapha and Levi said they wanted me to redo ALL of it.. cause of 6 SIMPLE lines I placed on the calendar so I would be able to know where to fold the paper.
It took a while to reason with the idea of poking ALL those holes again. but I did it. And I was honestly proud of myself.. I really felt I pushed myself with this project and I honestly worked very hard.
Packaging wise, I needed a protective case for my foldable calendar (accordion fold)... so I tried to make one out of the plastic material from a bin bag and lining it with hard yet bendable card. However, it didn't work very well and looked quite tacky! So I used Levi's idea about finding a packaging for it. I edited it quite a bit to fit the calendar perfectly as well as keeping it looking neat and tidy. 
Selecting the actual packaging was tricky, as I had to consider about the technicalities of how a blind person would be able to pull the calendar our and put it back,

Don't have images.... but will soon when I get it back!!! ^_^*

  1. maria - it would be nice if you could share your photos of the final calendar and describe how your system works. i think that others can learn from you.
