Just wondering how you guys display your Christmas cards at home. I get so many and haven't figured out yet, how to display them attractively. So today, I threw them all away :santahat

I wish people would stop sending me pictures of their kids.

Sorry, but your kids are only cute to you.

I wear them all to the office on casual Friday.























The office is hoping I get more than two next year.

EHJ is teh funny!

I don't get that many because I don't send that many, so I just put them in a pile.

Is 70s porn music really that different from 80s, 90s or 00s porn music? Is it like the porn 'stache that just gets recycled decade after decade?

I'm really not sure. This might be a question for GiG.

Good news is that my 'stache is almost fully grown!!! :elephant

If someone gave me a cool idea, I'd fish them out of the trash :lol

Nope, Shelly didn't make ornaments out of them. Did show the 3 year old how to make paper snowflakes yesterday, though :santahat

A few years ago, I worked on a house where the woman had a 2000 sq foot room dedicated to greeting cards.

People scare me.

That's too funny :lol

The really sentimental ones, I get, are stashed in my various drawers. God, my kid's are going to have to throw them all away after I'm gone :toast

Personally I like this one:

9. CHRISTMAS POSTCARDS. Use cards which haven’t any writing on the inside front. Cut out the fronts of the cards, and you have a postcard! On the blank side, draw a line down the middle. Write your message on the left, add the recipient’s address and a stamp on the right. These can be quick thank-you notes for the gifts you’ve received.



I think you should send this to the person who you received the card from. Just cut it in half, sign it "Thanks for nothing! Love, Marini Martini" address, stamp and return.

Awesome idea.

:lmao Me too. I don't really need to read an annual round-up of all the happenings in someone's life, particularly written in third person.

The good/funny cards from people I care about go on the fridge (I'm one of those whose every inch of fridge space is covered with kitschy magnets/pictures/clippings/etc.) for a couple of weeks, then I'll usually keep a couple of the important ones every year and trash the rest of them.
