What do you do with your Christmas Cards???

How do you all display your Christmas cards?

We get tons of them each year and I don't have any clue how to display them. I usually just throw them into a basket on the coffee table.

I have seen Christmas Card Trees before, but can't find one I like now.

Anybody do anything special with your cards?

My tape mine on my wall around the Christmas tree.

I found this holder but I'm not sure if I want it . . . or where I'd put it.

Still looking for ideas . . .

We have this huge archway and usually tape them all to the wall around that.

I really like that holder and I haven't seen very many that I like!

I tape mine all over the doorway into the kitchen and when I run out of room I tape them on the chair rail all over the kitchen!

One year I had a basket made just for Christmas Cards but it wasn't much fun because you couldn't see them all.

I bought those long, wide, red, velvety ribbons/swags a few years ago. I tack them to the wall around an arch in our living room where we usually put the Christmas tree. Then, I staple the cards to the ribbon and let them drape down. The cards and staples come out easily after the season so I can re-use the ribbon next year.

One year when I was especially broke and had no ornaments for the sad, little Charlie Brown Christmas tree I had, I punched a hole in the corner of the cards and hung them on the tree as my ornaments.

Definitely some good ideas. I'd rather put them up on a wall or something that hangs than on that tree . . . I just don't know if I have enough room for ANOTHER tree, LOL!!! I appreciate the ideas though, folks!

We have a card tree, but I have also done the ribbon around the door-frame idea that Kuhio98 mentioned.

we have a bullinten (SP) bored and we keep the ones that come with picture all year long, and we keep just the card for a couple months.

The first time I got the cards from PT, I displayed them all on this:

Afterwards I put ALL the cards and the pics in a big photo-album, which is here wellknow as mommy's PT-album

Next year I bought red ribbon and attached it to the wall:

And last year too:

I think I will need some new red ribbons this time. I expect LOTS of cards !!!

I tape them to the wall. I just took mine down from last year.

since i don´t get any cards at all, i do nothing, but if you get too many i think you can use them as ornaments for your tree (don´t buy another one),
or you can make like a wall paper and cover a full wall,i dont know let me think other stuff, its a lot of cards, there has to be something to do with them besides just putting them in a table or basket.
