Sending cards isn't the greenest way to celebrate the holidays, but they're still a cheery way to send best wishes

Start with narrow metal strips from your local hardware store

Next, you'll need magnets. If you're like most poeple, you probably have plenty of these on your fridge that you can repurpose for a few weeks; if you'd rather make Christmas ones to use every year, find coordinating papers and use them to back clear glass pebbles (detailed instructions for this process are also available at Not So Idle Hands). Together, the magnets and strips (both easy to store in the off-season) are a colorful, easy way to show off those too-adorable pictures of the people in your life year after year.
