You've already written several items in a calendar that's falling apart and you want to fix it, rather than throw it out. Whether you've made a calendar yourself or one has come unbound, you can have it fixed with a few simple items. Rather than simply stapling it, try some other methods that may help prolong the life of your calendar. Re-binding a wall calendar can be done at home or hired done for a more professional look.

Step 3

Place an open binder ring through each hole that you punched. These rings come in various diameter sizes. Don't place too many binder rings through the calendar as this may cause it to be top heavy.

Close the binder rings to finish the project.
