Christmas Card Display

I love getting Christmas cards from friends and family. And I love that they still send them to me even though I have never, not on year since we have been married, returned the favor. We can diagnose my problem some other time. For now we are going to talk about what to do with all of those cute cards once you get them.

I have a cute magnet board that I stick them up on, but honestly they all get buried on there by mid December and I am definitely not taking full advantage of the decorative potential.

I found this display on the BHG site:

I am sort of in love with Jingle Bells. And even though the rest of the display is not my favorite, I am sure that a different form of Christmas foliage would solve that problem! Anything for the jingle bells!

You can get the directions here on the BHG site. And it requires a hacksaw, so you might want to involve some hunky man in your life that wants to show of his hacksaw skills.

If I had a mantle, I would be all over it.

I have a ribbon strung up on the curtain rod for our sliding doors, and I have little red clothepins that I hang them with.

This would be great for table center piece. Thanks! I'm not to crazy about having to use a hack saw! ♥ it!!!

This is really cute. I had already decided that I needed a new mantle arrangement this year this may just be it.

That is a really cute idea. My cards usually get thrown together in a pile. If I had someplace to put that I would make one.

I've already done my mantle but maybe I'll change it now. I was shopping all weekend looking for a dang way to display my cards.

thanks!
