Hi.

Welcome to my blog/portfolio. Here I document many of my handmade pursuits. Hope you have a nice stay!

What to do with all the merry mail that starts to fill up your mailbox come Christmas time? Personally, I do not like displaying the mail randomly all around my home as it makes it look so cluttered. I like to have all the cards and notes organized neatly in one spot and these card holders are perfect for this. Made from reclaimed pallet wood, gray and white dry brushed to give a silvery, weathered, winter look, with multiple levels of jute twine criss-crossing the tree provides ample space for hanging Christmas cards. Jingle bells, white sparkly twigs, or shimmery snowflakes add colour and visual interest.

These Christmas tree-shaped card holders are great because they are free-standing, which means they can be displayed anywhere you wish. Stand it on the fireplace mantel or on the floor beside the fireplace, on a bookshelf, a sideboard, or even set it outside your front door with a warm welcoming message attached. Not only can they be used to organize Christmas cards, but kids' art pieces, or even annual family photos with Santa.
