Keeping Christmas Cards

What to do with Christmas cards when Christmas is over? For the past three years I have started keeping all the Christmas cards we've received. This year we more than felt the love with the amount of cards we got. I know there are a ton of ways to display the cards as they are coming in during the season but here's what I like to do. I hang a piece of ribbon down the center of our kitchen cabinets  and then as we get the cards I clip them on to the ribbon with clothes pins. The question comes up when you take all your decorations down ...what do you do with all the cards? I have started to keep mine on a binder ring and add ribbon for extra cuteness. I punch a hole in the top left corner of every card (this years took a long time) and then place them one at a time on the binder ring. I then put our family's card on top and display during the next holiday season. It would even be a cute idea to keep on a coffee table and keep out all year. Here's some pictures of what our display looked like this year. Look close and you may find your card up there. Enjoy!!!


Love, Jenna

  1. I always hate throwing away Christmas cards too! What a great idea to be able to look back through the years. And I spotted ours!
