I made a cute little Coaster Calendar

After spying an oh so cute idea on a blog (sorry was blog hopping and can't remember which blog) I thought I'd have a go myself. I used a coaster that I'd bought ages ago in a sale on a scrapbooking site, they were 10 for £1 (could also use beer mats), a tear off calendar by Anita's - 10 for 99p, Winter themed paper by DCWV and some ribbon, a flower and a button. So total cost was about 40p. I love it and am going to look for some little magnets that I could put on the back so the calendar can be stuck up, on a fridge maybe? I have already started making a few more as I love the idea and think it makes a fab little Christmas present. Would also make a nice Christmas pressie for teachers, ooohhh I can see me making loads of these, need to order some more calendars I think ;-)
