Displaying Christmas Cards

Tomato Cage Christmas Tree Christmas Card Display

I am going to try this, and put it on the table for cards to be displayed on.

You take a tomato cage, clean it and turn the prongs into a point. The prongs will be at the top. You take some wrapping paper, preferably green and put it around the top and tape it with duct tape.

Then you cut a circle on the bottom of green paper and put that at the base. I am not sure how they attached this, probably with duct tape or regular tape, perhaps. You now have a Christmas card holder for your cards, and you attach them to the "tree" with binder clips. I cannot wait to do this for the table.

Most years, I just hang a string and put them on it, or put them on the cabinets and refrigerator with magnets.

I also may decorate with more things such as the silver garnish you buy at the Dollar Store, and a few other things. This tree was so cute, I had to share it with you on Thriftyfun.

Using Christmas Towel to Display Cards

Don't have a holiday card holder? I have an idea to get those Christmas cards up for friends and family to see. Take a Christmas towel (mine has a Christmas ball on it), and hang it on the wall with 2 thumb tacks. Then you can just staple or tape your cards to it.
