cute (and easy) ways to display holiday cards

i wasn’t sure where to put my holiday cards last year but then i had the idea to use this pretty brass garland i had from a few years ago and i think it looks so cute!!
sadly this garland is no longer sold but since it was so popular with you guys, i thought i’d look around for other card display ideas. i haven’t seen too many pretty options you can buy, but i did come across a lot of really cute diy ideas so i thought i’d round up what i found for you! the best part is a lot of these ideas involve things you probably already have around the house and don’t require much effort at all. hope it helps!

1. clip cards to a garland
so cute and easy if you already have your garland up somewhere! kelly of studio diy used pretty brass metal clips to attach to her garland but i’ve also seen people do it with clothespins too.

2. roll out some ribbon
if you don’t have garland, just tape up some pretty ribbon and attach your cards with clips. so simple and cute. also really easy to just run the ribbon down a door or wall!

3. adorn cards on a wreath
same idea as the garland but with a wreath! great option if you don’t have too many holiday cards.

4. decorate a mirror
tape them around or on the sides of a mirror. bonus points if you use some festive washi tape.

5. hang them on a ladder
if you have a pretty blanket ladder around this is such a cute idea. tie some string to it and then attach your cards with — you guessed it — clothespins or clips.

6. display them in a pretty basket
also makes it fun for you or for guests to look through them.

8. string them across a window
this could be so sweet in front of a kitchen window. all you need is some string and more clothespins.

9. create a card tree
use string and clothespins to create a christmas tree on the wall. you could also simplify even more by just taping the cards to the wall in the shape of a tree. this would be so fun to do with kids!

10. attach to string lights
just use any string lights you might already have!

11. diy wreath chandelier
this is a bit more ambitious but looks so cute, and even cuter with holiday cards added. see the tutorial here.

hope that helps inspire your holiday card display!
