Though time sometimes crawls, it seems the year just flies by and before you know it, it’s December, you haven’t even started on your bucket list and you need to start planning Christmas shopping. With a personalised diary full of funky photos – whether it’s snapshots of your Mr. PotatoHead or a collage of black and white art shots – planning your time is easier; mostly because you’ll actually want to look at your diary rather than glaring at it over your morning coffee while you silently rant about your hectic schedule.

How it works:

• Visit http://www.photo2print.co.za/Diary_downloader.html to download the easy-to-use software for setting up your diary
• Once you’ve installed the program, choose your diary size and get your artist face on for designing your masterpiece
• Select your theme and the photos for your front cover
• The easy template makes it easy to drag and drop photos, and you can use whatever images you want
• Once you’re done, follow the instructions to order your diary

What you need to know:

• The diary has a week-to-view layout, meaning you’ve got enough space to scribble down your appointments
• It includes pages for notes, in case you’re planning on writing an epic screenplay or planning an angry phone-call that you need a script for
• Also includes a handy year planner

Once your diary has been delivered, you can decide whether or not you really want to be marking it up with daily scribbles.

Film Fact: It was in 1962 that a photography student named Hans Cherrybottom took the iconic photo of an Orca Whale doing interpretive dance. This series of photos made front page news and Hans published the pictures into an animation type coffee table book which, when flipped through quickly, showed the Orca doing his famous dance.
