One of my favorite holiday traditions is the sending and receiving of Christmas cards. I love that it forces me to get a family photo taken each year. I also love all of the mail that starts arriving in December. With social media it’s easier than ever to keep up with those you care about but there is something special about getting a photo or card in the ACTUAL MAIL, don’t you think? So get those little gems out and on display! There are so many cute ways to display your Christmas cards! Today I’ve rounded up tons of ideas that you can DIY too!

I saw this post and was inspired to make my own ribbon board because it looked to festive and simple. Sadly, it looked SO simple, I didn’t actually read all the steps and missed the one where you tape the bottom of each ribbon. Oops! My cards all slipped down through! Folded cards are fine – I just slide the folded half in and hang the top out. Flat cards were a challenge… luckily, I had a pack of teeny Christmas clothespins handy, so I was able to clip the flat cards on. It looks adorable, is functional, cuts the card clutter on the mantel, AND adds a pop of Christmas to a formerly blank surface. Thank you for the inspiration and Merry Christmas!
I made a green felt banner type thing and use a command hook on the back of our basement door to hang it. I pin all of our cards on it and by Christmas Day it is covered. I love being able to look and read them every day.
