FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Our calendars do not have holiday dates printed on them as not all holidays are relevant to all people. There is however plenty of room on your calendar to write in the holidays and events which you observe.

While we do our best to accurately represent the colors of our products on screen with photographs and graphics, we cannot guarantee that the color you see on your screen will exactly match the color of your calendar. All devices display colors slightly differently, depending on lighting and screen calibration. Please contact us before purchase if you have any questions about colors.

All of our designs are created here in Portland, Maine. Our large wall calendars and planners are printed by our printing partner who has locations around the globe. This saves on both shipping and resources. If you order a wall calendar within the States, your order will be printed in the States, usually in the partner facility that is closet to you. If you order a large wall calendar from within Europe, your order will be printed and shipped to you from a European printing partner.

Unfortunately we don’t offer dry erase / wipeaple / laminated products at this time, but we may add them in the future.

You can get your calendar laminated in a local printshop or office supply store. Alternatively, you can frame your calendar and use dry or wet erase markers on the glass or plexi surface.

Personally, I like to write any fixed dates directly on the calendar, and use Post-It flags for any dates that might change so I can easily move them around if necessary.

If you need a calendar, but don't want to wait for shipping, or if you have access to a large format printer and you don't want to pay for printing, you can purchase a printable version of most of the Plan The Things wall calendars and get planning today.

PLEASE NOTE The following products are high resolution PDF files for instant download and not physical products. If you purchase a printable calendar, no printed material will be shipped to you.

PLEASE ALSO NOTE You can print the calendar from your PDF more than once - do you need one for your kitchen and your office? Cool, go ahead and do that. You can't however print one for every office or classroom in your building at work, nor can you edit the PDF or sell the file to anyone else. By purchasing the printable calendar PDF you agree to use it for personal use only. 

If you're looking for some instant planning gratification, the digital printables are perfect for you.

Nothing is shipped to you - you will receive the file as a digital download that you can print immediately at home or at a local printer.

Choose the file that you need and add it to your cart. When you check out successfully, you will see a link to download the file and there will also be a link in your confirmation email (please be patient, this can take up to 5 minutes).

You can print the file as often as you like or you can use it in GoodNotes or other apps which allow you to annotate PDF's.

Printables are PDF files that you receive immediately after purchase, so you can print them out yourself at home or at a local print shop.

There are two types of printables available - digital versions of the wall calendars, which can be printed up to 30" x 40" and smaller printables formatted to fit A4 or US letter-sized paper, depending on where in the world you are located. These printable

The printables are for personal use only and cannot be used commercially, modified, resold or redistributed.

We have partnered with an awesome organization, One Tree Planted to make sure that for every paper item sold in the shop, one tree is planted. One Tree Planted is reforesting the world by planting trees in North America, Latin America, Asia and Africa. 

At the end of each month, we calculate the number of paper items sold, and donate a dollar for each paper planner to One Tree Planted. One dollar donation plants one tree in an area in the world in need of reforestation. 

We all need to do our bit to help give back to the planet. Just think, every time that you purchase paper wall planners from Plan The Things, you are getting your plan on and you're responsible for planting trees. Every single tree helps - let's work together to plant a forest.
