DIY Burlap Roll Christmas Card Holder​

Materials:

• Burlap roll (you can find these at craft stores);
• Hot glue gun and glue sticks;
• Scissors;
• Ribbon or twine (for hanging);
• Optional: Decorative elements like lace, jingle bells, or artificial greenery.

Instructions:

1. Measure and Cut:
   • Decide on the desired length of your card holder. Measure and cut the burlap roll accordingly.
   • For a rustic look, leave the edges raw. For a cleaner finish, you can fold and glue the edges under.
2. Create the Card Slots:
   • Fold the burlap roll in half lengthwise.
   • Make vertical slits along the folded edge, spaced evenly. These slits will hold your Christmas cards.
   • The size of the slits should be slightly wider than your cards to allow easy insertion and removal.
3. Decorate (Optional):
   • Add a personal touch by decorating your card holder.
   • Glue lace or ribbon along the top or bottom edge.
   • Attach small jingle bells or artificial greenery for a festive look.
4. Create a Hanger:
   • Cut a piece of ribbon or twine long enough to hang your card holder.
   • Glue or staple the ribbon or twine to the back of the burlap roll, near the top.

Tips:

• For a sturdier card holder, consider gluing a piece of cardboard or wood to the back of the burlap roll.
• Experiment with different burlap colors and patterns to create a unique look.
• You can also add a personalized touch by embroidering a name or message on the burlap.

Additional Ideas:

• For a more elaborate card holder, you can shape the burlap roll into a tree or wreath form.
• Use different-sized burlap rolls to create a tiered card holder display.
• Fill the bottom of the card holder with small decorative items like pine cones or ornaments.

Enjoy your handmade burlap roll Christmas card holder and create a warm and inviting holiday atmosphere!
