Hi, I'm looking for a new idea to hang my Christmas cards this year. I don't want to put them on the fireplace or fridge....again..... I'd like to try something new and original, something crafty. Any suggestions?

I like the "laundry line" look--tie a ribbon or piece of string across a wall, and get those tiny clothes pins from the craft store to attach your cards to it. Very cute!

We do the laundry line thing, I use a push pin or thumb tack and string red and green ribbon between them then I just lay the cards across the ribbon so if anyone wants to take them off the ribbon and read them they have easy access. Makes the living room look really festive with all the different colors and scenes. Merry Christmas!!

Get some wide gold mesh ribbon and cut a few lengths long enough to reach from top to bottom of an inside door....use those metal clips from the office supply store in Christmas colors and clip the cards on each side of the hanging ribbon sort of herringbone style. decorate each inside door of the house with a card ribbon to spread the cheer throughout the house.

String ribbon from one side of the door to the other [the inside of the door] then hang them on the ribbon....you can go from the top of the door to just below half-way....or use ribbon to go from a door frame to a window frame and hand them on this...just open the card and hang over the ribbon...you can use thumbtacks or push pins to hold the ribbon.

Decoupage them on a cardboard box with a lid, or on a wooden box made of plywood and top with a padded top using a festive Christmas fabric. Or you could colleague them using a poster frame and hot glue mistletoe on the frame. I like to attach them to red ribbon with a bow on top and hang them to doorways and on interior doors.

If you have glass over your dinning table or coffee table, I would put them under the glass or go the your arts and craft store and purchase a card holder like the attachments I listed below.

We just tape them to one of the doors in our family/living rooms. It looks like a big collage once you get enough of them up there.
