Getting Organized: Mod Podge Calendar

Calendar Board

Is your calendar on your phone? Linked to your email account? And set up to send you reminders?

Sometimes it's nice to see those big events: birthdays, final exams, dinner parties, or the big game marked on the kitchen calendar.

Don't forget what's happening in your month with our Mod Calendar -- perfect for home, work, or your dorm!

And if a calendar's not your thing, you could make your own to do list, memory board, or a special place to leave notes! What would you do?

Find Mod Podge on Facebook
