Two aesthetic calendar templates: muted sage on linen or dusty mauve on blush, with serif headings and plenty of white space.
Sage Aesthetic pairs muted sage green (#4d6b57) on a warm linen background with Cormorant Garamond headings and DM Sans dates; Mauve Aesthetic uses dusty mauve (#8e4f5e) on blush with Playfair Display and Quicksand. The look comes from low-saturation color and serif type — there are no photos, stickers or textures. Unlike most pastel palettes, both main colors are dark enough to print well on white paper (5.9:1 and 6.1:1), so the month title stays crisp on a home inkjet. Sage Aesthetic hides note indicators and uses spacious cells for the cleanest page.
2 templates available
"Printed title" is the contrast of the template's main color on white paper. The PDF prints on white and uses the main color for the month title, divider line and today marker; dates are dark gray. The WCAG contrast guidelines set 3:1 as the minimum for large text; 4.5:1 or more reads comfortably.
