    Hi, Kelli.

    The calendar is absolutely stunning. I would love to make this.
    Could you show how to do each month in your Thursday crafting step by step? I can figure out what some of the items are on each page but not all. Would be nice to have a list of items required to complete each month. Thanks!!!
