How Your Personalised Desk Calendar Is Made

Choose up to 13 of your own designs to create a fun and customised calendar. Every calendar is handmade to order by our team of skilled craftsmen. Our technicians print your designs on 160gsm satin finished paper, which has a smooth and contemporary look. The paper is then bonded onto strong cardboard, which gives the calendar a sturdy finish. Specialist water-based inks are used to create your calendars, which provide wonderful depth and colour representation. Your calendars are completed with a white metal wire binder, which makes turning the pages a breeze.

Design Tips

Your calendars come in a pack of four. This is perfect if you are looking for unique gifts, or if you want to use the calendars as promotional tools. You have 13 pages to design; the front cover and each of the 12 months. Why not use the pages to create a design story? If you have an art series, upload a different design for each month, so the calendar will feature the whole series. You can give the front cover a title, and replace the line of text under each image. Replace the text with the name of the piece of art. This is an original and creative way to show off your design skills.

How does this product enhance my...

Home

A calendar is a universally useful piece of stationary, that deserves a place in every home, office and beyond. It's fine to keep your appointments and daily activities on your smart phone calendar, but there is something rather nostalgic, not to mention useful, about writing everything down on a calendar. You can view your monthly plans with a simple glance. Make your own desk calendar and upload designs and artwork that inspire you. The pack of four means you can enjoy them at home, and at work.

Business

If you are looking to promote your business in a new and exciting way, then consider designing personalised desk calendars. They come in a pack of four and can feature a different design for every month, as well as the cover. Use these spaces to upload imagery that promotes your business, whatever that may be. You can also caption each month, which allows you to add text. Give the calendars away as gifts to clients and customers to promote your brand. They will love receiving something so beautiful, and so useful. 

Design Brand

If you are a designer or artist, consider expanding your product line to include a range of custom printed desk calendars. Beautiful stationary is something that everyone loves, and everyone needs. The sweet A6 size of these calendars make them perfectly proportioned to sit on a desk or any other flat surface. You will love the way our printing technique shows off the beauty of your designs; with crystal clear details and vibrant colour reproduction. They make a simple yet statement piece that will bring so much to your product portfolio.

Alternate Text Print guidelines & finishing

Print Guideline

  • DPI-Print Guideline Icon

    What's the best resolution to print in?

    We print at 200dpi, which is a good combination of quality and file weight. Ideally, your image should be scaled to 100% at 200dpi, this means that no resizing of your file occurs stopping any interpolation.

  • Jpeg-Tiff Print Guideline Icon

    Should I save my file as a TIFF or JPEG?

    For multi-coloured or very detailed files we recommend using a tiff format, but they must be flattened. For simple colours and low detail files, a jpeg is fine.

  • RGB-CMYK Print Guideline Icon

    Which colour model should I choose? RGB or CMYK?

    We advise providing images in the RGB colour space. Specifically using the sRGB image profile, to achieve best colour results.What does this mean? In your editing software choose RGB as the working space, and assign the image profile as sRGB (full name sRGB IEC61966-2.1)

  • GSM ICON

    What does GSM mean?

    Grams per Square Meter (GSM) is an international standard for measuring the weight of paper or fabric. GSM uses the weight of a square meter (1000 x 1000mm) as an indication of the weight and thickness of a given fabric. We class 20-100gsm as light (summer fabrics, gauzes and fine silks), 101-249 gsm as medium (most clothing fabrics) and 250+ gsm as heavy (upholstery fabrics, and other specialist fabrics).

  • Fill Bleed Areas ICON

    What are bleed areas?

    When designing your product, it’s best to make sure that your image is slightly larger than needed. In printing, the extra printed image is referred to as a “Bleed Area” or margin, and it is removed from the finished piece. A bleed area acts as a buffer for slight inconsistencies in the manufacturing process. however, it’s important to fill your bleed areas completely, or you may end up with white, unprinted strips along the edge of your finished product.

  • Transfer-Print Guideline Icon

    Do you print on garments a customer supplies?

    Unfortunately not. All our garments are printed on flat fabric and sewn into finished products, which gives a better-finished result and all-over print. We test meticulously so that we know what gets the best results on our fabrics, and our facilities cater perfectly to them. We do however print sublimation paper to order, so if you have access to a heat press you can press your fabrics or flat garments easily.

  • Pattern Alignment Across Seams ICON

    Can you Align a Pattern or design across panels of a garment?

    We always strive for the greatest accuracy when printing and constructing your garments. However, due to unavoidable stretch or movement of the fabric during the stitching process, we cannot guarantee perfect pattern registration across garment seams. We are generally accurate within 2-3mm, which is close enough for most patterns but may show slight issues with detailed geometric patterns.

  • print label option icon

    Can I print my own Labels?

    Most of our garments now come with printable label space for you to add your own company information and branding! If you would like to sew in your own labels, we also offer Printed Fabric Labels here.

  • Eco friendly Printing

    How is your fabric printing eco-friendly?

    With environmental consciousness in mind, our fabrics are all printed using completely water-based inks. This means no chemicals or solvents are used. Our heat fixing procedure fixes the colours and prints, avoiding the downsides of steaming, such as excess or contaminated water returning into the waste system. We have one facility where we conduct all the printing, production and fulfilment.

Please note: As everything we provide is handmade to order, all measurements may vary slightly.
Alternate Text FAQ

Can I design every page of the personalised desk calendar?

The best thing about making your own desk calendar is that you have the ability to make it look however you want. You can upload a different design for every month of the year. This is perfect if you have an art series that you want to show off. All four calendars in the pack will feature the same designs.

Is the calendar handmade?

Your new calendar is completely made by hand at the Contrado studios. We use a satin finish paper to create the pages of your calendar. Print technicians print your designs onto every page of the calendar, before cutting the pages to size and binding them with a sleek white spiral spine.

What will my calendar look like?

When you make your own desk calendar with Contrado, you won't receive just one A6 size calendar, but four. The thick card paper is glossy and vibrant. Each calendar features a built-in stand, making it easy to display on any desk or flat surface. You can create a different design for each month, as well as the cover, creating a dynamic and unique calendar.
