of the Christmas decor, especi-
ally for those who must closely

—With straight pins, attach
cards to lengths of wide ribbon
or felt tacked on wall or door.
—Slip cards under glass of
glasstopped tables.
—Place cards on an inexpen-
sive wood or paper screen. Add
Christmas ornaments or pine
cones and frame with greenery.
—Cut a large sheet of green
oilcloth or felt in the form of a
holly leaf or tree, tack to the
wall, and paste or pin cards to
it.
—Spray sturdy twigs with
white paint and place in a vase.
Hang cards from the branches.
—Bend wire coat hangers in
various forms and tape one to
another to make a hanging card
mobile. Spray with a Christmas
color and suspend from ceiling
or light fixture.
—Use a garland of greenery
strung with cards to decorate
the staircase bannister.

mas color. Tack it between two
