The Christmas Card Question

What on earth do you with your Christmas cards? How can you display them attractively? In previous years I've stuck them up on the window frames in the conservatory, or blutacked them to the pine panelling in the old dining room. Neither method was an option this year.
In the end I decided to hang them on ribbons which are suspended on the doors around the house. We've got some lovely cards this year and I think this works really well. Of course, only the cards that co-ordinate with our colour scheme are on show here ...... I just can't help it! Any card that doesn't make the grade is hung in the hallway, and truly dreadful ones haven't gone up at all!!!! Oh dear!

I've hung a few from a ribbon on the kitchen window, just to add a bit of detail until I get a new blind sorted out. The new kitchen would look lovely with bunches of greenery above the units ..... too late now, but maybe next year!
