Blogger Holiday Card Swap

Can you believe that it’s been over two weeks since Christmas?! I feel like the winter break just flew by! I managed to spend probably 50% of it in my pajamas, so I feel like it was a pretty successful holiday. Plus, I got to participate in two exchanges with other bloggers from all over the US!

I posted earlier about the awesome Blogger Secret Santa Exchange that I had the opportunity to participate in this Christmas, and I also took part in a Blogger Holiday Card Swap organized by Lauren of Daily Dose of Charm. This holiday card swap provided the opportunity to interact with even more bloggers in real life. (And I’m a total sucker for good old-fashioned snail mail).

The cards that I ended up with were so adorable, and I really appreciated some of the personal notes that came with them! <3 I really hope that I have the opportunity to participate in a card swap like this again next Christmas. If I do, I’m definitely going to print out return address labels, because I quickly realized that my handwriting isn’t as neat as I want it to be! I love those little life lessons…

Since I was determined to put all of my pretty holiday cards on display in my apartment, I stretched some scrap mistletoe-print fabric over a spare poster frame I had and turned it into a little Christmas bulletin board!

Here’s a pic of it with all the cards:

I’m also thinking about buying some holiday cards now while they’re on sale… or I may order some personalized ones from Shutterfly. What do you guys think? Do you buy your holiday supplies out of season?
