MAC postcard collectinos...how do you store/display yours?

uopgirlie · 02-16-2007, 01:17 AM #1 (**permalink**)

My postcard collection has recently grown by quite a bit, so I am looking for ways to display/store them.
Right now my postcards are in photo boxes...can't frame and hang them right now because I will be moving in August and I don't want to cover more than 70 little nail holes! =) I hate that they just sit in a box and I only get to see them when I take the time to look over them.
I'm thinking of scrapbooking them..
Any ideas/suggestions?

I keep my postcards in photo albums. One set of albums for the 5x7 ones and another set for the older 4x6 ones. The photo albums are the simple single sleeve kind where you slip one postcard on either side of the sleeve. I didn't want the photo albums to be flashy or cutesy (it would take away from the brillance of the postcards, ha), so I chose simple elegant ones. I also chose to put them in albums so I can easily slip them in and out and rearrange as I like. I can take a picture of them later on and post it. I also organized them into sections somewhat. For example, I put the Viva Glam ones together, the asia exclusive ones with the foldout flap together, etc.
