Yes, it may be the week of Christmas which means next week you will probably start taking down all your Christmas decorations. But if that depresses you just a little bit like it does me, then you will be happy for today’s post just in time before the clean-up starts.

Be sure you don’t throw away any of the Christmas cards you may have received in the mail this year. Reuse them in the most beautiful way with your own wall art next year. It’s the perfect way to cherish those cards you received and the people who sent them.

UPCYCLED CHRISTMAS CARDS TO FRAMED WALL ART

Christmas in my house growing up was never the same without Hallmark. It really is true. My Mom always gave us Hallmark cards no matter what the occasion and always bought us our own Hallmark ornament every year to hang on our tree. I continue to hang those same ornaments on my own tree now.

Instead of packing all those Hallmark cards into a keepsake box, I love that they can be turned into beautiful wall art. All you need are a couple of frames and some tape along with your Hallmark cards of course.

I got these 5” X 7” frames at the dollar store making this Christmas decoration extremely budget friendly. I can also change out the cards throughout the year depending on the season or occasion.

Remove the back of the frame and place the card inside. I placed 2 small pieces of tape on the back to keep the card in place as well.

Replace the back and then hang your frames for the perfect décor. Most people think that decorating for Christmas is just too expensive. There are no more excuses with this idea that literally only cost a few dollars.

I added a pom pom garland made with bakers twine that I made last year for a little extra pop of color.

I found this collection of cards at Walmart which gave the perfect look I wanted. If you are wanting a certain design or colors for your art, be sure to check out Hallmark cards.

They are always gorgeous. Plus when you send them to someone you love, they will know just how much you care and are thinking about them.

You can even find a coupon hanging in the card section to get $2 off a 3 card purchase.

Now while I was shopping for my Christmas cards this year, I ran upon Hallmark ornaments. I just couldn’t leave without buying 1, 2, okay maybe 4 actually especially after my Mom started this tradition when we were kids.

Christmas may soon be over, but you can get a jump start on next year’s decorations NOW with your Christmas cards and framed art for next year.
