I have a pretty basket that I keep all the incoming ones in. However, I'd like to try something else - I like it when I see them strung across people's door mouldings.

I put mine on my fireplace mantle. A couple of times I have put it thru the slats of my blinds. I have also put them on ribbon, tied to the drapery rods

I usually put them on a ribbon tied to my bannister. I also have some ceramic card holders in the shape of snowmen and santa that holds one card. I keep that on my kitchen counter.

I have thick red ribbon that I hang on the wall from the ceiling down to the ground with tape, then tape or staple them to the ribbon all the way down. I usually have to hang three of them.

Ww have a blank wall that you see when you walk into our home. I will tape them to the wall in a random matter (some diagnal, some straight up and down) and visitors always state they are greeted with holiday cheer when they come over.

OMG - I just throw mine in a pile and throw them away after Christmas! I didn't realize we were supposed to display them!

I stand mine up on top of furniture in whichever room the picture on the card matches best.

I stick ours on the coat closet door too.

I bought some stuff at Walmart to use.It looks like clay or play doh. It peels off without leaving any spots on the door. I keep the stickup stuff in a small plastic container and reuse it. We stick up our cards for every special day! Birthdays, Valentines day, Easter,etc.

We have an arched doorway between the living room and dining room and I hang them all around the archway.

We put them on the tv stand. The kids love to look at them and it is very easy for them to get them down from there

I have floor to ceiling book cases in my dining room and I just stand them on the shelves. Before we had this house I would sometimes tack them around a door way.
