Organization blog Unclutterer asked their readers what they did to recycle and purge holiday left overs. Among the clever responses was a tip on turning them into postcards:
I recycle my Christmas cards. They arrive in the mail, I read them, I cut the writing off the back, I turn them into a Christmas post card with a friend's address, stamp and short message and repost immediatly.
Obviously you might want to save the ones with "MERRY CHRISTMAS" emblazoned on the front for next Christmas, but many holiday-themed cards could be sent as thinking-of-you postcards even after Christmas has passed.
