enJOY it

an archived personal and craft blog from Elise Blaha Cripe.

liner up.

Handmade0892 I cannot even pretend this was my idea – but I wanted to share it. Paper Source hung strips of envelopes for a holiday window display and at least five people asked if they were holiday card displays. They were not orginally – but DUDE, they should be.
Handmade089 Easy to make. Buy a package of envelopes and stick in some patterned liners (templates here.) Next, line up the envelopes and adhere to each other with double-sided tape. I set an eyelet in the top and added a ribbon before hanging on the wall.
Handmade0893 'Tis the season is right – I better get some holiday cards to fill this one up…

Happy Thursday – Happy Handmade.

    This is a really great idea Elise, you could also line the envelopes with photos–I may have to do that!

    Great idea! I am always searching for new ways to manage the boat load of Christmas cards. This will be my 2009 card holder (already borrowed an idea from Martha for this year). Thanks for the great blog!

    That is totally cute. I’m not sure where I’m going to put holiday cards yet. By the way, how hard is letterpress? What sort of equipment does it require?
