DIY Christmas Post

It's no proper Christmas without Christmas cards right? I love writing letters and cards ever since I can remember. I had several pen pals when I was in school and it all started with the neighbours of my grandmother. She showed them the cards I've sent her and told me, how they would love to receive cards from me too. So this one Christmas - like 18 years ago - I saw how happy people can be if somebody thinks of them and sends them a nice card to wish them a Merry Christmas. I guess this won't ever change - Internet or not, a handwritten Christmas card means so much more than any E-mail, text message or facebook post in the world. 

All you need: ribbon, pens, cards, deco Christmas balls and tape

Cut a piece of ribbon and wrap it around your card. Then cut another piece of ribbon and stick tape at the one end of it. 

Then create a loop while sticking the other end of the ribbon onto the tape. Put a deco Christmas ball in the middle of the loop, fix it with a piece of tape and glue it onto the ribbon of the card. 

Final product.
