Do you throw away Christmas cards...

after the holidays are over?

We are taking our decorations down today and DH thinks we should keep them! I think we have too much stuff already and need to throw them away!

Yes, always!! Too much clutter after awhile!

The only cards I DO keep are the ones that DH gives me on our anniversary. Chat Icon

I throw away every single one of them. I.m one of those people who throws away everything and likes to keep nothing. I hate clutter!

Re: Do you throw away Christmas cards...

I throw away most of them. I keep the picture ones and put them with my holiday stuff so I can see how the kids have grown since the past year. Once I have looked at the old compared to the new, I dispose of the old one. We already have so much christmas clutter

I save the picture ones in an album. I save pieces of the regular cards if they have something that might be useful in scrapbooking otherwise I throw them out.

They leave the envelope and go directly into the trash - I don't even display them for the holiday.

Re: Do you throw away Christmas cards...

Yeah, its always nice to think about saving them....and I used to, but then I realized I never ever look at them and they sit and collect more dust and take up more room. I guess I thought I was more sentimental than I really am! Chat Icon

That's actually a good idea!
I used to keep them but then I realized that I NEVER went back and looked at them.
And space is at a premium as it is in my house- so now they go!

Re: Do you throw away Christmas cards...

I'm terrible...i save all the cards i get for everything. I really have to start getting rid of some, but i've been doing this since HS, so there are a lot. Some are still meaningful, but some are from people I haven't spoken to in years, so it's time to get rid of them. I just need to narrow it down to the ones that are important to me.
