Free Printable Calendar 2020
Oh how I love a pretty calendar on my desk! We first created a free Calendar for you guys last year, and we had numerous requests for another for next year, so here it is. Our Free Printable Calendar 2020 is ready for you here on The Graphics Fairy. It is simply gorgeous. It was created just for you by one of our top notch designers Anja from On a Whimsical Adventure. Anja used images from our Premium Membership Site HERE, to create this gorgeous Calendar! Our Premium Members get amazing beautiful Printables every week on our Membership site, but this one was especially made just for our blog readers. You can print all of the pages of our charming Vintage Floral Cartouche themed Printable CD Calendar below. Scroll to the end of the tutorial to download the high resolution PDF files. We hope that you enjoy this Free Gift and that 2020 is a fabulous year for you all!
Our 2020 Printable CD Case Calendar
We love our compact CD Case Calendars. The CD Case Calendar adds a custom designer touch to your desk. We will show you how to turn an ordinary jewel case into a calendar display easel. Each month is personalized with its own lovely image. This is a quick and easy (and very affordable) gift for the man in your life, a special teacher, or office teammates. All you need to do is print out the PDF pages, trim the edges, and place them in a CD jewel case. It is that simple to give a useful handmade token.
CD Printable Calendar 2020 Tutorial
You can purchase pre-made calendar CD cases or you can make your own out of a CD jewel case you already own. Here are the easy-to-follow directions for our DIY Free Printable Calendar 2020. Select a CD case. I prefer a slim one, but any jewel case you have on hand should work. For this tutorial, I will use a two tone case so you can see the steps better.
Carefully separate the top cover from the bottom cover.
Carefully, because you do not want to break the tiny plastic pins that are on the little hinges. (see below) That is what holds the entire piece together.
Flip both pieces over so the inside is facing down. Reattach them with the outsides facing each other. It will form an angled easel as you see in the step below.
Carefully attach the side back together. The inside of each piece will be outside now.
Slowly turn the front clear piece toward the blue back. (Note: Yours may not have a blue piece.) Stop when you hear a little click. DO NOT force it or it will close all the way and break.
This is what it will look like now.
Here is another bulkier one folded backwards.
Print Your Calendar
Print your calendar from our Free Printable Calendar 2020 below. Do not scale it down or up. It is the perfect size. I printed these on white cardstock but any heavy paper will do.
Trim the sides, top, and bottom close to the print area. Adjust as needed based on your case.
Place the month on the front of the case. There are little tabs that hold it nicely in place. On my case there is also a thin ledge for it to rest on.
NOTE: You may need to trim the bottom to fit your case. Take your time with this. Anja designed plenty of play room on both the top and bottom edges. I like to tear my top edge!
Store the extra months underneath so you will have them handy.
Enjoy creating our Free Printable Calendar 2020!

I knew there had to be a way to turn a regular CD case into a calendar base. Thank you not only for the calendar graphic but also the instructions for the base (although I had to tweek my bases a bit different due to the way they were made). You are the best!! Hugs!
Karen Watson says
That’s awesome Heather! I’m glad you were able to figure it out and that the instructions were useful to you!
