This card display is big and holds a lot of cards in addition, it doubles as a pin board you can pin post card style cards and Christmas photos too! The materials for this project were bought from a local department store, the fabric we used is actually a sparkly table cloth! It’s certainly amazing what you can find if you use your imagination. You could also check out your local craft or fabric store, they always have a lot of selection. DIY Christmas Card Wall Display and Pin Board Idea What you’ll need: Foam board (36” x 24”) Christmas fabric or table cloth (as we used here) Mod Podge glue Hot glue gun/glue sticks Ribbon Scissors Ruler/measuring tape 2 foam brushes Push pins Firstly, measure and and cut your fabric to fit the foam board.  Leave about two inches of material to wrap around the edges of the board. Cut the corners of the fabric to remove any bulkiness, therefore resulting in a nicer fit that’s easier to glue down.  Secondly, using the foam brush apply a thick layer of Mod Podge to the back of the foam board.  After that, fold the fabric over the edges to glue it in place.  Continue this process until all of the fabric is secured.  Set the board aside and allow it to dry completely.  Once the mod podge has dried you can add the ribbon.  Measure the lengths you need and cut it to fit. Then, secure the ribbon onto the board with the hot glue gun. Be sure to measure the spacing between each ribbon.  Double check with a card! We love how easy this DIY Christmas Card Wall Display and Pin Board Idea is, also how pretty it looks.  If you’re looking for more Christmas ideas check out our Christmas Card and Photo Boxes, they make amazing gifts!
