Calendar Design Guidelines & Customization Options
To maintain consistency and quality across all calendars, we offer two levels of design: template and cus
Below you’ll find a breakdown of features, pricing, and options to help you choose the best fit for your project.
Template Design (Fixed Layout – $150 Design Fee)
Every standard calendar begins with our expertly designed base template—a refined structure that balances professional aesthetics with production efficiency, making it easy to showcase your art beautifully and affordably. The template keeps things simple and streamlined. If you’re looking for something more customized just let us know—custom designs are available for an additional fee.
This includes:
- Preset calendar date grid
- Fixed date numbers and weekday labels
- Standardized fonts, sizing, and layout positioning
- Canadian & U.S. statutory holidays
- Moon phase indicators (new, quarter, and full moons) – Equinox & Solstice dates
This $150 design option covers layout preparation, image placement, light text setup, and soft proofing. It’s ideal for artists looking for a ready-to-go format without major layout changes.
Note: Any changes to the calendar grid, structure, or core formatting are considered extended customizations and require a custom design quote (see below).
Custom Calendar Design (Starting at $300)
When you order a custom calendar, you’re not just printing dates—you’re creating a one-of-a-kind piece that reflects your personal brand or artistic voice. Our custom design service starts at $300 and gives you full creative control over layout and visual elements.
Customizable features include:
- Front & Back Covers: Imagery, typography, and layout designed to match your vision or brand
- Fonts & Typography: Select your preferred typefaces, sizes, and text treatments
- Monthly Layouts: Customize grid styles, image placement, and background elements
- Bio & Feature Pages: Add artist bios, promotional content, or storytelling sections
- Special Editions: Include title pages, dedications, quotes, or poems
- Colour Themes & Backgrounds: Match visual tones to your art or seasonal mood
- Grid Modifications: Alter layout structure, date alignment, or language
Custom layouts are ideal for collector’s editions, branded merchandise, or themed series. Additional fees apply for extended changes or complex formats.
‘The Enchantment of Nature’ Calendar ~ by M. Morgan Warren
Holiday & Moon Cycle Inclusions
All calendars come standard with:
- Canadian and American statutory holidays
- Moon phases (new moon, full moon, etc.) – Equinox & Solstice dates
If you’d like to add or remove specific holidays, highlight personal milestones, or modify moon phase visibility, these are considered extended customizations and will be quoted based on design time required.
Image Area & Borders
For best visual results, we recommend full-bleed images, which extend to the page edge for a bold, modern presentation.
If borders are preferred:
- A minimum ⅜” to ½” margin is required on all sides
- Note: Borders are not available on small-format calendars such as the Gallery Mini or Artist’s Perpetual, due to trim and bleed limitations
Choose full-bleed for immersive impact or bordered layouts for a clean, gallery-style look when space allows.
Colour Matching & Proofing
Due to differences between backlit screens and printed materials, colours may appear slightly different in print. To help ensure a high-quality outcome:
- Soft proofing is included with all calendar orders (PDF layout for general review)
- Hard proofing is required for all fine art design and print projects – $70 per calendar (professionally printed, colour-calibrated).
- For critical or advanced colour matching, changes beyond our standard refinement process are billed hourly at our design rate
Image File Review & Optimization
Each image you provide goes through a professional review process to ensure the highest print quality:
- Resolution Check: We confirm each file meets print standards. If it’s too low-res, we’ll contact you with options
- Image Clean-Up: We remove dust, specks, or scanning artifacts as needed
- Colour Optimization: Adjustments are made for optimal vibrancy, contrast, and tonal balance—tailored to the digital press output
- Signature Removal: Artist signatures can be removed upon request, with care taken to preserve image integrity
This process is included in your design fee and ensures your calendar reflects your work at its best.
