Im not going to lie. One of my favorite things about Christmas are the cards. There is something magical about going to the mailbox each day and getting sweet cards from friends and family. Are they expensive? Do the pictures stress me out every year? Do I get my feelings slightly hurt when I send one to someone and don't get one in return? Yes, yes, and yes. All that said, I would feel funny if I didn't mail them out. It's just one of my traditions. Over the years, I have really enjoyed seeing how other people display their cards. This is how we do it right now. I have a lighted garland that I put around a big doorway and as the cards come in, I poke a small hole in the corner (with a push pin) and then add an ornament hook. I find a special spot on the garland and attach it. I love seeing them displayed like this.
After Christmas, I take the cards down, stack them nicely and hole punch them. I put them on a ring with a cute cover (like a book) and I put them out the next year for everyone to enjoy. I have done this every year and its so fun looking back at Christmas past. I store my "books" in a small basket.
Thanks to Pinterest, I have also found lots of other super cute ways that I wanted to share.
