Displaying your retro Christmas cards

There is no point in receiving lots of Christmas cards if you aren’t going to show them off. From lining them up on your mantelpiece above the glowing fire or hanging them up in traditional cardholders, there are plenty of options for displaying your Christmas cards at home. Get creative and come up with your own DIY cardholders that embrace the retro feel of your favourite cards. Carry on the vintage theme by creating a cardholder from an old book. Fold each page so that they are sturdy enough to hold a Christmas card between each one. Place the book on a side table or use it as a centrepiece, adding accessories such as holly, pine cones or mistletoe to give your display an extra festive touch.

Writing your festive greeting cards

Writing Christmas cards doesn’t have to be a chore! Stick on your favourite Christmas songs, make yourself a nice hot chocolate and make a start on writing your cards. Let the Christmas lyrics inspire your messages or keep it short and sweet simply signing off your cards with a quick Merry Christmas. You can have us print your generic message on the inside of your cards leaving you just to sign your names or you can create blank Christmas cards to allow you to get creative with a personal handwritten message. Take a look at our Christmas card verses for some inspiration to help you get through the pile of cards waiting on your desk.
