Folded Book Christmas Card Display
6:56:00 AM
The Christmas cards will start rolling in at any time!
One of my favorite holiday projects is this one.
I'm using a vintage children's book to create a great place
to hold Holiday cards. This is also a great way to recycle old books that have been discarded from the library.
There never seems to be enough space to hang Christmas cards in my house.
I've seen tons of great ideas on the internet but they all take up a lot of room.
This one has enough spaces in it to hold plenty of Christmas cards and it can sit on the coffee table so everyone can enjoy the cards.
I started this project with a piece of stained wood.
I glued the folded book to the wood then added metal trim detail from another project to the sides.
Folding the book pages is a great mindless project to do while watching TV at night.
A Christmas card holder that doesn't
take up a lot of room, looks beautiful, and
is easy access for everyone to see the cards.
This would make a great hostess gift!
They are a hot seller at all my craft fairs!
Sorry but I'm keeping this one... it is beginning to fill up
with beautiful cards from friends on my own coffee table!

ReplyDeleteSusan... wow!! I love how you made the card holder out of recycled vintage items and it now has a new life as something both practical and useful, as well as being gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI'm delighted to be featuring it at Shabbilicious Friday tomorrow.
Happy New Year.
