Calendars are the perfect gift this time of year. But before we clock over into 2015, it's worth checking out some of the great custom printed calendars invented by several savvy, design-oriented individuals in recent months. I'm a big fan of modern, minimalist styles so I would love to pop all three into my rooms at home! Which ones would brighten up your 2015?

Custom Printed Modern Calendars

These gorgeous calendars might look like your standard desktop fare, but in actuality they are Matchbook Calendars - tiny little customised calendars that are ready to be slipped into your pocket. I particularly like the bold, retro colours on the printed outer cases. These would make a great secret santa gift!

A sticky note calendar? Yes, it exists and yes, it's awesome. This large wall calendar includes a backdrop of basic black or yellow so it would look great on a feature wall. The post-it notes are designed specifically to stick over important dates so that you never forget a birthday or anniversary again!

And finally this award winning Cube Calendar features little individual cards for each date/month of the year (plus some fun quotes in between). Each day you rip one card off to reveal a new one and so on. What makes the Cube Calendar so unique is the way it is designed. No matter how many date cards you rip off, it always looks stylish - it even has a cute little spot that can be branded with your logo.
