[Dailydrool] Howliday card display

[Alison Becker]

In the past, we have strung a piece of twine across the top of the wall in the dining room and used clothes pins to put them up.  It was pretty cute, but annoying to keep climbing up there!  This year, I decided to tape them over several pictures I have that are framed and glass covered.  So far, I am REALLY liking it because a) it is easy, b) they are already at a good height for viewing, c) it makes my pictures more Christmas-y and d) it is easy!  Plus one picture is right above my workspace where I have been working on my howliday cards, and looking up at all of those cute faces keeps me motivated to get mine out.  Speaking of which. . .back to work! Alison

Until this year, I have always displayed my cards in a small chest that I set on my fireplace.  Of course, I can't bear to throw any of them away so my little chest is full of cards from over the years.  I still go through them each year and see how each family has added to (and lost from) their members.  This year I am trying something different.  I found a way to display them on the wall.  I found display made of wire and shaped like a Christmas tree.  Each branch has curly smaller branches which you can put a card on.  I'm not sure how well this will work just yet as I only have about 20 cards on it so far.  It is supposed to hold 100, so I don't know what I am going to due when I pass that amount.  I enjoy seeing them all on display every time I walk through the room.I would be interested in other ideas too.Arroooos to all and healing drool to those in need.  Especially Janet Dean while dealing with her loss of her doodlebug Kelly.
