Wall Calendars

From decorative photo styles to customizable dry-erase boards, Staples offers a variety of calendars for your walls.
What Are Wall Calendars?
Wall calendars are logs displaying the current calendar or academic year that can be attached to a wall for easy viewing. Wall calendars allow you to easily reference them when you need a reminder. They are good for mapping out goals or deadlines for the month or year, and recording events or information over time.
They’re also an ideal place to track information that more than one person might need access to, making them great for shared spaces like break rooms or offices. Some options even offer grids for extra notes, providing plenty of space to detail all of your upcoming activities.
How Do I Hang A Wall Calendar?
Wall calendars are incredibly easy to hang in several different ways, and you won’t need much equipment to get the job done. Depending on your living or working situation, you can opt for a style that can be wall mounted, placed on a hook or hung on a magnetized surface. For dorm rooms, cubicles and other places where you need to leave very minimal damage, hanging your wall calendar up with a thumbtack is one option that won’t put a visible hole in the wall. Tape and adhesives or Command hooks and hanging strips are another safe option that will leave little to no damage.
Otherwise, you can use a nail or picture hook to hang your wall calendar.
What Features Should I Look For in Wall Calendars?
Below are some of the most common features people consider when buying a wall calendar.
Daily vs Monthly vs Yearly
The most common date options available for wall calendars are daily, monthly or yearly. Daily calendars are perfect for laying out the meetings and appointments you have scheduled for the day ahead. Monthly options are good for laying out the next few weeks’ worth of time and appointments. Yearly styles are primarily used for seeing everything you have going on throughout the year holistically.
Decorative vs Non-decorative
These products come in a variety of designs and themes, so you’ll always be able to find one that suits your style. Decorative calendars provide a variety of style options so customers can use them as a part of their decor as well as a functional tool. You can get wall calendars in colors like black, grey, white, red, blue and a variety of multicolor options.
Non-decorative wall calendars keep things minimalistic and clean, which may be a good choice if you’re buying them in bulk for an office or another professional environment.
Varied Sizes
Wall calendars come in various sizes, including mini calendars which are as small as 6 x 6 inches and are perfect for compact spaces like cupboards and lockers. Large calendars can be as big as 33 x 66 inches and are great for providing a detailed view in classrooms or workspaces.
