Pixum photo calendars are the perfect gift idea for grandparents, whether as a birthday present or for Christmas. However, in order to give this piece of craftsmanship a special touch and to make sure that it is not just a random collection of photos, give it a go using our five tips for the perfect calendar.
Choose photos of the family from throughout the entire year, each in keeping with the respective months. Here are a few examples:
• January: Building a snowman
• February: Children enjoying pancake day
• April: Children enjoying their Easter eggs
• June: Summer holiday on the beach
• July: Children splashing around in an outdoor pool
Hide little coupons in your calendar. To do so simply add a small text field to any page and make a note of your coupon there. These need not be large presents ? small gestures are more than sufficient:
• A delicious meal at our house
• A joint visit to the zoo
• A day with Granny and Grandpa ? their choice
• A surprise visit
Most families have fun snaps from childhood. One really fun idea is to recreate these photographs from way back in the day. Maybe it?s three fully-grown men sitting in a circle with dolls, drinking coffee from toy cups. Or maybe they?re hanging off the edge of the roof. Or splashing around in a bathtub overflowing with bubbles. You can then display the original alongside the recreated shot in the calendar ? this way they get a bit of a laugh each and every month.
It doesn?t necessarily have to be a calendar with photos of the kids. Dreamy nature shots or memories of days gone by, paired with contemplative words of wisdom are sure to strike a chord with the grandparents. To this end, add text fields to your Pixum photo calendar that are in keeping with these beautiful sayings. To do so, click on ?Add Element? beneath the Editor field ad then select a test field.
Your calendar will be even more eye-catching if you spruce it up with appropriate accessories. Stick wheat grains onto the photo of the children in the cornfield, a tissue for that photo of a runny nose or recreate the Winter snow with cotton pads.

“Great quality product. As always, the customer service is excellent. I ordered the wrong book size and the team were very helpful in correcting it.”
“Very happy with my latest Pixum photo book celebrating my wife's 70th birthday with one picture for every year. Print quality is excellent even from rephotographed old b/w prints. And the service from the Pixum team is always helpful and friendly.”
“Lovely photo book and very good quality. Will definitely use again.”
“I love my book and really enjoyed putting it together. The quality is really good. In the beginning it took a little while to navigate the app but I soon got the hang of most of what it did but not all. I would have liked it to do a few more things such as the ability to place photos in shapes and clouds etc. I also think the price point is rather steep and probably would make more books if they weren?t so expensive.”
“Great service and quality from you as always”
