Chaos Control Mini Challenge

Y'all, the desk challenge is kicking my hiney. Is it just me? I can't work on it while N is awake or he wants to hold all of the things. Anyway, in the meantime does anyone want to share ideas on how to display Christmas cards?

I like to stack mine around the house on top of my random piles of mail

When we get enough, I usually put them on the mantle.  You know, when I'm feeling all pinteresty.

We've been sticking them on the fridge, but I'd like a better way to display them

I usually put them on the mantle or on a window sill.

But I can't remember what TV show (or maybe it was a commercial) I was watching the other day, where they were hanging off of a string in a foyer -- sort of like a garland of Christmas cards.

I read "IN" the fridge.  I wasn't sure if you were being silly, or you were insane.

We usually tape ours from a corner along the edge of our breakfast bar.  We have some standing on our mantle too.

That's really cute, SAK.  If my cabinets weren't so hideous, I would totally do this.

SAK, that is so cute!! I really want to do that. Ours always end up stacked on the table or counter.

@ovenrack‌ What do you use to secure the string? We have metal doors, so I can't use tacks.

I saw a picture where someone made their's into a wreath that they hung over their mantle - maybe it was a card holding wreath that you could buy. Mine just go in a pile on our book shelf for now, but we haven't received very many this year.

Every year except for this year ( because I'm just too freakin tired To drag out all of the decorations) we do it like this on our kitchen cupboards. I have glittery red ribbon and painted some clothespins silver. Then at the end of the year all the photo cards go on our fridge and the other ones go in the trash.

Stringy, I want your Christmas card

Love the cards on the cabinets! I've done exactly this but on a narrow wall in my house- I've glued the cards to a pretty ribbon about 6 feet long and hung it vertically on the wall. This year I just clothespinned them on a framed chicken wire I have hanging in my kitchen.

I hang a string and clip them garland style. Probably not this year, though, I have too much to do.

I've been using painters tape to tape them to the wall next to the stockings.
