Since discovering music during my school days, I’ve mainly listened to Japanese and Korean pop. I have experience writing articles for sites like Utaten. 2000s J-pop and 2010s K-pop were especially the soundtrack of my youth. With the mindset that “good is good,” I enjoy music across genres. Thanks to past work environments and their influence, I was exposed to lots of classic rock and kayōkyoku (Japanese popular songs), which may have broadened the scope of what I love. At RAG MUSIC, I currently focus on K-pop and J-pop. I strive to edit with a feel for the scene and an eye for hit potential.

We’ve put together handmade ideas and creations for tear-off daily calendars!

There’s a little spark of excitement every time you flip a calendar page, isn’t there?

There are plenty of lovely store-bought options, but making your own lets you reuse it, grow attached to it, and enjoy something both practical and uplifting.

With a bit of creativity, you can make something really fun!

In this article, we’ll introduce recommended projects that are great for inspiration, including easy-to-use perpetual calendar styles.

Here’s an idea for a dice-style wooden calendar that lets you feel the warmth of wood.

This DIY project uses cube-shaped and board-shaped pieces of wood to make a perpetual calendar.

Write the dates and other markings on the dice using water-based paint.

The board piece is cut and finished into a frame.

Since knives and cutting tools are involved, staff should provide support as needed.

A tip: sand the wood in advance.

It will make the surface smoother and give the finish a nicer color and sheen.
