Reviewing Calendars for Christmas Gifts

Zazzle Calendars

Calendars can make great gifts, particularly if you find a subject that resonates with the person that will be receiving the gift.  Do you have a bird lover on your Christmas list, then the calendar listed above may be just the thing.  The calendar above was created from photographs I took in my backyard of eastern bluebirds throughout the year.  It can be purchased at this link on Zazzle Bluebird Lovers Calendar

Lighthouses

I love lighthouses and after I retired my husband, and I traveled the country photographing lighthouses.  I have created calendars from many of those photographs.  Here is a page from my calendar on Michigan lighthouses.

Travel Destination

I really enjoy traveling and sharing my travel with others through my photography.  Calendars are a great way to share places you have visited.  Here is one I made after our visit to Quebec City in Canada.  It is such a great place to visit and the old town was a great place to capture some unique photographs.

Here is a link to the above calendar, where you will be able to see 12 months of different scenes from Quebec City. Scenes from Quebec City


Covered Bridges

Madison County Iowa Covered Bridges


In our travels another subject that caught our interest was covered bridges.  These bridges are becoming a thing of America's past, but there are still many scattered around the country that give you a wonderful feeling of days gone by.  I have read that bridges were first built covered so that the horses that traveled over the bridges would not be scared by the rivers below.  In the calendar above, I have captured photos of the bridges of Madison County.  You can find a link to the calendar on Zazzle at this link Bridges of Madison County


Sports Teams

Sports calendars are favorites for fans of many teams.  Whether your team is MLB, NHL, NFL or college teams you are sure to find a calendar on Amazon.  Here is a link to a calendar of my favorite team the St. Louis Cardinals.

  1. Mary Beth, I have always loved your beautiful photographs and know any one of your subjects would make lovely calendars. I especially love your factual tidbit about why bridges of the past were made covered. Keeping horses from being scared walking over a river never occurred to be. How interesting. Your Bridges of Madison Country (Iowa) photographs as calendars are fantastic.

  2. I would never be able to keep up with appointments and schedules without a calendar, especially a calendar where the blocks are large enough to make several notes. I love specialty calendars with one theme like your birds, lighthouses or bridges. I am sure we all have a favorite, but as for me, I would choose the birds. Your photography has always been beautiful and inspirational. Calendars are a lovely way to share your photos!

  3. A themed calendar tied to one of the recipient’s interests makes a great holiday gift to help them start the new year right! Your wonderful photos must make your Zazzle calendars special, indeed.

  4. Your Bluebird calendar is beautiful. I have such a soft spot for covered bridges as well. I don't know why, but they speak to me. My first introduction to covered bridges, was the movie "Bridges Over Madison Country" with Meryl Streep. There is something about that movie, and covered bridges that connects deeply to my soul. Love the covered bridge photo you featured!

  5. I agree Calendars are a lovely gift especially if you align it with the persons interests. I love your Bluebird calendar. Your photography, as always is really lovely and how wonderful to travel around beautiful places in retirement taking your photos.
