I enjoy the anticipation just as much as the moment itself. I love making a list of the things I want to experience in the coming months. This summer, I hope to go on a nice bike ride, pick fruit from the vegetable garden, and paint outdoors. What’s on your summer Checklist? 💛 Love, Daphne #daphnesdiary #checklist #summer

✨ DIY Paper Desk Calendar ✨ Sometimes the best projects are also the simplest. With just one sheet of A4 paper, a pair of scissors, glue, and some pretty paper, you can make a desk calendar that will instantly make your workspace a little cozier. Start with a sheet of A4-sized paper. Starting from the right edge, mark off strips measuring 4 cm, 10 cm, 10 cm, and then 4 cm again. This leaves a narrow strip of about 1 cm. First, fold the 1-cm strip over, then the 4-cm strip, and finally fold the paper in half again. Glue the narrow 1-cm flap to the 4-cm flap. This creates the base for the calendar. Next, make the three compartments. Draw three rectangles measuring 4 x 7 cm, with a 2-cm strip below them and small adhesive flaps on both sides. Fold the bottom strip forward and secure the flaps on the back. This creates three handy compartments into which the cards can be slid later. Next, cut out a stack of three small cards. Write the days of the week on one, the months on another, and the day numbers on the third. Slide the cards into the pockets so the date can be easily adjusted each day. Have fun making it! I hope this calendar finds a nice spot on your desk. Are you going to make this calendar too? Love, Daphne 🤍 #DIY #papercraft #daphnesdiary
