pinup wreath to display holiday cards

Stuffed between sale flyers and credit card bills, holiday cards are a bright spot in mailboxes all season long. Charming and colorful as they may be, it can be a challenge to display cards in a creative, stylish and clutter-free way.

Which is why this clever DIY pinup wreath from Martha Stewart is at the top of my holiday must-make list. Constructed from a wooden embroidery hoop, mini clothespins and a generous length of ribbon, it does double-duty by forming a colorful decoration and keeping cards collected. After the holidays, use it as an inspiration board or for children’s art.

Watch for more ideas on how to display your holiday cards in the coming weeks.
