DIY Christmas Card Book

Sharing how to create a DIY Christmas Card Book by using your your photo pictures from friends and family. Turning cards into a book is easy and a keepsake to last for seasons to come. There is no reason to throw greeting cards and Christmas cards away!

Stop right there! Don’t throw away those beautiful Christmas cards that you received from your family and friends. I’m here to share a method I’ve been using to preserve the beautiful memories instead of having them end up in the trash.

But first, you might be wondering who am I??? I’m Lindsay and I have my own positive place on the internet over at Pursuit of Pink. I believe that a positive life is a happy life and I strive to walk that out every day. At Pursuit of Pink, you will find a whole assortment of topics: lifestyle, parenting, personal style, recipes, beauty and more. I’d love to get to know you and have you follow along.

Ok, back to those gorgeous Christmas cards that your loved ones send you each year. There are more times than I’d like to admit when I simply didn’t know what to do with them and I just trashed them. The horror!!! I absolutely hated throwing away the precious cards, knowing how much time and money went into sending them out. However, I simply didn’t know what to do with them. And then it hit me…create a Christmas coffee table type of book with the gorgeous pictures and I can enjoy everyone’s smiling faces all year long.

DIY Christmas Card Book

Creating the book is simple!

Supplies Needed:

-Christmas cards from family and friends
-a single hole punch
-a binder ring (you can buy a big pack from Staples or any office supply store)

(side note: If you want to get fancy you can laminate your cards too.)

To create the coffee table book, here are the few basic steps I follow:

Organize your photo cards by size and shape. I prefer to group like sizes together so they stay neat and tidy.
Punch a single hole in each card.
Slide each card on the binder ring.
Place somewhere in your home where you can see them all year long and enjoy!

I put mine on a side table where I know people will see them. I love having guests over and seeing them flip through the book. Now every year when I take my Christmas decorations down, I get to add a beautiful memory book to my regular home décor.
