Dave started school this week — and I know MANY of you have already been in full-blown school mode for weeks already.
Are you feeling the need for a little more organization yet? 🙂
If so, I’ve got the PERFECT solution for you… CalendarsAndChores.com
I shared these AMAZING magnetic wall calendars with you last year — and I’m excited to be sharing them again (just in time for the crazy back-to-school season)!
This is the calendar we have — the Large Magnetic Dry/Wet Erase Calendar. Dave actually confiscated it from me last year (I told him it was OK) because he loved it so much and wanted to use it at school.
Isn’t it pretty?
This is definitely the coolest, best, and most thought-out wall calendar I have ever used.
As you can see by the photo below, the weeks are all individual magnetic strips — which means you can simply remove the top strip when that we is finished and place it at the bottom. So you never have to “flip” to the next page and worry about forgetting something. You just keep going, week after week after week.
So as long as you keep moving the finished week down the the bottom, you’ll always be able to plan about 5 weeks in advance (and you’ll never need to buy another wall calendar ever again!)
The different months also come as separate magnets so you can mix and match based on how many weeks you’re showing at a time.
Genius… right?
And for those of who you live and die by the calendar on your phone, I can speak from experience that it’s still really nice to have one big family calendar in the home to keep everyone on their toes.
A few more details:
Each calendar comes with your choice of colors and fonts.
Each calendar comes with your choice of frame color (the finished product is 27.5″ x 23.5″.)
Each calendar comes with a “memo” strip with the following categories: Upcoming Events, Grocery List, To Do List, Notes. This is my favorite part of the whole deal!

Shelly Smith says
I won this giveaway last year, and I absolutely LOVE my wall calendar!! It is super easy to use and it looks pretty too!!
Andrea says
yay — thanks for sharing Shelly. I’m SO glad you love this calendar!
Jaime says
Brilliant idea! I hate being in the last week of a month and having to decide between erasing it to start the next month, or having to wait to enter everything at the start of the new month. Thanks for the opportunity.
Andrea says
I know — that’s why I was thrilled when I stumbled across these calendars a couple years ago!
Tricia says
Thank you so much for having this giveaway! I am so disorganized and would love to win one of these!
Jules says
Thank you for:
a) having such awesome giveaways and
b) making them so easy to enter
It is so nice to just click a button and be entered, rather than jumping through hoops of liking on facebook, following on twitter, etc.
Great calendar, too!
Andrea says
you’re welcome — and yes, I hate the multiple entries! just click the button and then you have time to click through to another post for more reading 🙂 LOL

I am looking at the website now because if I don’t win the giveaway, I am DEFINITELY ordering one of these!!! But I am curious as to how you select the specific print and font that you want for the frame that you select…
Andrea says
yay — you’ll love the calendar (whether you win it or buy it!) I believe the font and color choices are listed out in one of the images for each different calendar. So just choose what calendar you’d like and then scroll through the images until you see the one with the font and color selections on it.
Jennifer says
What a great calendar! I love that the weeks peel away and can then be used to plan ahead! I have a standard dry erase calendar now and just cram all of next months appointments at the bottom in the “notes” section- but this concept is much better.
Andrea says
yeah, these calendars are AWESOME! Such a great idea with the removable magnetic weeks!
