Don't Chuck that Holiday Card


Yesterday, I was "tweeting" with Beckie, from Cubicle 57. She was asking the question, "how long do you keep your holiday cards?" Well, If you are a "potential craft project" hoarder saver, like us...as she pointed out to me....the question is really "how many years do you keep your holiday cards?" Thanks for the post inspiration, Gurl!

If at all possible, keep then out of the landfill and repurpose them into one of these many crafty ideas...

I love these ideas so much!!! I actually decorated some packages with cut outs from past calendars (one had a Boston Terrier image that I used for my sister). Now I will certainly save my cards!

These are great ideas!! I've used old Christmas cards before as present tags. I LOVE the look of the poinsettia!! And using them as a wine tag is genius!!
