Recycling Christmas Cards: Framed Art

While visiting family this week, I noticed my mom received a stack of Christmas cards from family and friends. She had a genius idea that I just had to share! Several of the cards had beautiful graphics that weren’t too “Christmasy” and were worth saving, so she decided to frame them!

What You Will Need:

1. Old Christmas cards

2. Scissors

3. Picture frames

How To Do It:

1. Cut out the part of your card that you would like to frame.

2. Put the card inside your frame

Wasn’t that incredible easy? What cards in your collection could you save for art? This is such a simple and adorable idea! For more Christmas card ideas, check out our Happy New Year Banner from Old Christmas Cards and Seven Ways to Upcycle Greeting Cards posts!
