- 1). Print small monthly calendars, four to a page on standard 8 1/2-inch by 11-inch cardstock. You can find a variety of calendar templates for Word at Microsoft Office Online, or you can design your own in a graphic design program. Cut the calendars apart and trim excess edges. The finished calendar pages should be about 4 inches by 5 inches.
- 2). Cut a piece of heavy cardstock or thin cardboard to 5 inches by 11 inches and fold it in half.
- 3). Punch two holes in the top corners of the calendar cards with a hole punch. Thread a loose-leaf book ring through each hole.
- 4). Punch two corresponding holes in the upper corners of the cardboard, where you want the calendar cards to hang. These holes should be on the end near the crease in the cardboard.
- 5). Cut a length of ribbon to about 3 inches. Glue one end of the ribbon to the bottom center of one side of the cardboard. Extend the cardboard into an upside down "V" shape and secure the opposite end of the ribbon to the other side of the cardboard. The ribbon will be between the legs of the "V" to keep the stand from falling flat.
- 6). Thread the loose-leaf book rings with the calendar pages through the top holes of the cardboard calendar stand and close the rings.
