Budgeting and grocery shopping is one of the best ways to trim down your monthly expenses and daily spending- but there are dozens of challenges out there- especially the advice that is ultimately unrealistic. Here is a list of budgeting and grocery shopping challenges and how you can make them realistic strategies to save on grocery shopping!

Upcycle Your Calendar IN FIVE EASY STEPS!


As a college student, we sometimes find the crazy urge to travel. We want adventures and to find ourselves a long way from home. We want to climb mountains and stand on the top of it after a long hike up the trail and watch the sunset or -rise on the horizon, watching it slowly wake up the rest of the forest, rivers and mountains. We may want to backpack through Europe and find the most remarkable gems of Rome, England, Germany...

But what if that doesn't happen as soon as you had hoped? What if life has thrown in random variables to your system; some good, some bad. You then realize that you've not gotten around to those traveling adventures that you had wanted so badly at the start of your college career. You haven't yet added photos of you visiting places around the world, or decorated the house with those same photos. What if you have a beach theme, like my sister does for her first college apartment? Puppy theme? Fashion and Paris theme? Shakespeare?

OR!

How about you turn your dreamy calendars, that remind you of these grand adventures,that you want to explore so badly, or wonderful literature and nature photos into framed photos and decorate your house with a sense of anything from adventure, books and travel, to beaches, mountains and rivers?

Well, here is that tutorial!


SUPPLIES:
  • Calendar
  • Frames
  • Straight Cutter

A Beautiful Calendar















I used a straight cutter but if I ever find circular frames, I will attempt to cut a circular or oval-shaped frame with scissors & share it with you gals!

DIRECTIONS:
1. CHOOSE YOUR PHOTO




2. PICK THE PHOTO YOU WANT
3. TRACE THE PHOTO AROUND THE GLASS

4. PREPARE TO, & CUT ALONG THE LINES





5. PUT IT IN THE FRAME 




Enjoy your artwork without having left the country! 
Someday you will have a long list of traveling under your belt and you'll be able to add to your collection!
