DIY photo calendars

Who did you use? How much did you spend?

TIA

I made them through shutterfly last year and vistaprint. Shutterfly was more creative but more money. I think that it's worth it and will use them again this year.

I used Snapfish and got a 12x12 for 18.50. It was on sale reg 24.50. I just got it back in the mail yesterday and it looks so good. I did it for my moms Bday in Nov.

KodakGallery.com. With the $15 discount that's been floating around including shipping I paid $10 and some change. I had a cover photo and 4 photos on each month page so a total of 49 photos

I've used Shutterfly and Kodak. Kodak was a little flimsier and smaller; I was more impressed with Shutterfly. If you go with Snapfish, I would recommend doing it early because I've had a bad experience with them being "overwhelmed by holiday demand" and didn't get my stuff until after Christmas even though I ordered it on Dec. 3.

I used Shutterfly last Christmas- the price was by one get any addtional (of the same calander) at 1/2 price.

With snapfish you get a cover picture, up to 3 pic a page plus you can put pictures into specific dates on the calendar i.e birthday's, anniv and holidays. The paper quality was great, really strong.

We used Shutterfly and I think I got the calendars for around $12.50 each with free shipping. I ordered them in late November/early December. I surprised at how long it took me to put them together, I just could not make my mind up on which pictures to use Stick out tongue

Thanks ladies! I am leaning towards Snapfish, as I like their background selections and the option to add a photo to the actual date square

I wish scrapblog did calendars ... I love how their site can direct link to flickr.com ... I hate having to upload everything :P

I have started one on Kodak, but I think I'm going to look around at some of these other websites mentioned. I know the one at Kodak is $19.99 for an 8 1/2 x 11 (I think). I'm trying to make one for my mom's birthday next month, but it's taking FOREVER because I'm also including pics of my neice and I'm combing through my step-sister's facebook albums

Totty - just FYI, if you use Snapfish you can add more than 3 pictures per month. I changed from Kodak to Snapfish and on two different months I have 9 pictures (DDs birthday month and my neice's birthday month). You just have to drag pictures to the month side and instead of putting it in a photo box you put it on the border (the background of the calendar will turn white) and it will rearrange pictures for you. I figured this out after I was almost done, so of course I went back through every month and added more pictures!
