Wedding cards.... what to do with them?

I’m trying to tidy my house and I’ve found a stack of the cards we received when we got married..... what do I do with them? Part of me is tempted to chuck them out but would I regret it??? What did you do with your cards?

You could make them into a collage? Or just put them in the bin. Realistically who will care about them apart from you two?

I loved looking through my parents wedding day cards, a lot of the people there have since passed away so it was a nice link back to them. I will admit to still having a pile of my wedding cards, my parents put everything into an album which worked well.

I did this with mine:

It looks so beautiful in my living room that I also did it for my DS "New Baby" cards x

I saw an idea on Pintrest to make them into a book, with each card as a page. They suggested adding photos to the blank sides over the years you are married.

Put them in the recycling. Same with ones we received when DS was born.

Greetings cards aren't recyclable unless you remove all the foil, glitter etc!

I kept mine in the loft to look at one day... Never have. It's been 5 years. Maybe next time we move?

I love the idea of the punch out frame thing up thread though.

Ours are in the loft. We like to keep important cards.

I did something like this and it turned out really well. I love getting them out to look at from time to time.
