...with all the wonderful postcards you receive from WDW or from our postcard exchanges?

Ours sit on the mantle of the fireplace for awhile until I finally take them down and put them in a drawer. There has to be something better to do with them? I'd like to keep them all in one place!

Oh no. Not coming in this thread. Fell innocently into a thread here once and now I'm surrounded by blank cards and bits to stick on them. And the glitter from last year's Christmas card making still appears in all sorts of places. Nope not getting suckered in to any more "how easy is this" stuff. :wink:

Big cork board that will go on the wall in Steven's room when the decorating is finished. :D

If your planning on decorating (probably have to be a kids room although i'd have em!) you could use them to make a border round the room. :shrug:
You'd need a lot though!

Nope. No kids. Cute idea tho!

I was home sick yesterday and on this one remodeling show, instead of putting up curtains, they made a shelf to go above the window and then put children's books on that shelf! Cute idea!

How timely, have just decided what to do with mine -

I'm going to put them in a small album that has clear plastic pages so that I can see the pic and still be able to read the back of the postcard! :)

Do you open the door every now and then so it can all fall out and you can spend hours looking at it all? :lol:

One day - usually only open the door in order to throw more stuff in :D

I covered an old jellyroll pan (cookie sheet with sides) with fabric and have attached the cards with magnets. Ugly magnets. The kind you buy in a roll and are supposed to use to make beautiful magnets. Haven't had the time or energy for the beautiful part yet.

One day... :sigh:

I like the idea of a book or a corkboard.

When I've gotten enough postcards I'm going to use a posterboard and cover it with all the cards with some other disney stuff I have and then I'm going to frame the whole thing in one of those huge poster clear acrylic frames for my office.

You're probably getting close, Breeze! ;)

Love that idea! Fun, with a touch of elegance! :)

It's going to be a winter project for when it's snowy and icy and cold outside :thumbs:

A bit like our "summer" projects--when it's 110 degrees and humid outside! :D

I'm going to scan what was written on the one side then make a scrapbook. I'll have the picture on one side and still be able to read what they wrote.

i put them in a small photo album. I have WAY to many photo albums, i keep buying them when they are on clearance, along with picture frames.
