Sue from NB, Canada explains how she displays her Christmas cards by making a mini clothes line!

Materials Needed:

  • Used Christmas Cards
  • Miniature clothes pins
  • Seasonal Yarn or twine
  • 3 tacks or nails
Instructions:
Tack or nail up a length of yarn approximately 4 ft long, or whatever length works for you. Place tack at center of yarn for stability when weighted with cards.

Simply attach cards to the clothes line at an angle with the clothes pin on top left corner.

Make one or several. Hang over a mantle, as a room divider, above a window, from a plate rail, on one or both sides of Christmas tree, between large houseplants, etc. You can also use regular clothes pins and paint them if desired; however, you may need a little more than a couple of tacks for the extra weight.
