I don’t know about you, but even though my smartphone calendar helps me out a lot, a desk calendar is insanely effective at keeping me in line. I don’t know why that is, but something about it just being there 24/7 is so helpful. It doesn’t need a charge, it doesn’t demand attention, it just is. So let’s look at some gorgeous DIY desk calendars that will pretty up your space while they help you organize your life!
