Step by Step St. Patrick’s Day Calendar Drawing Instructions
Step 1 – Draw the Spiral Rings

Start by drawing five or six small ovals in a row — these are the loops that hold the calendar pages together.
Step 2 – Add the Calendar Frame

Draw a big rectangle underneath the rings — this is the main body of your calendar.
Step 3 – Divide the Header Section

Add a horizontal line to separate the top header from the calendar’s date section.
Step 4 – Draw a Large Circle

Inside the bottom section, draw a big circle — this will hold the date (17!).
Step 5 – Add the Date “17”

Inside the circle, write the number “17” in big, clear digits. You can use fun bubble numbers or your own style!
Step 6 – Draw a Face (Optional!)

Give your calendar some charm by drawing two eyes and a smile in the top section.
