Weve been sending photo Christmas cards since DH and I were married in 1990. Each year we display the entire collection of cards weve sent through the years. Its everyones favorite Christmas decoration because it always brings back fond and funny memories from vacations, milestone events, etc.
Well this year, the flimsy thingy I use for displaying the card chronology fell apart.
(Ive been using this for about 3 years http://www.exposuresonline.com/jump.jsp?itemID=586&itemType=PRODUCT&path=1,2,5,39&iProductID=586).
Now I need to find a new way to display our history of Christmas cards. I need a method that wont require using tape, or glue, cutting, or making holes. (We treasure this photo history and want to keep it intact for as long as possible.)
I suppose I could just buy another one of the flimsy things and be done with it. But, before I do, Im asking the DIS for other suggestions.
BTW, Im not a crafty, creative person at all.
Things Ive considered:
1. putting each card in a frame and making a pretty group display on the piano, or someplace else. (But the cards are 3 x 6 & 4 x 8. I havent found affordable frames in those sizes.)
2. Getting a photo wreath. But I havent seen them for sale recently. (This is what I used before, but it got sloppy-looking, and the photo cards curled quite a bit.)
3. Asking a scrapbook expert for suggestions (but that may be a crafty solution that Im not up for.)
If youve read this far, thanks for your interest. And thanks in advance for your suggestions.
