    I recycled previous years cards that I had kept and made them into gift cards, something I used to do and havent for a few years, MIL asked me where I had bought them as she couldnt believe I had made them.

          Mrs snuffer puts to one side cards with little pictures on to be made into gift tags. The rest are taken to school where they are collected and sent to The Woodland Trust. As people from the surrounding area bring theirs and not just the staff and pupils every year they collect several huge sacks full.

            Christmas cards are expensive and not very nice here so I'm a cheepskate and cut up most of mine to make next cards for next year.

            I do have to be careful not to send parts of the original card back to the sender though

              The best recycled card I ever sent was one where the original senders had had an ink drawing of their house printed into Xmas cards. The following year I got my kids to colour it in and add glitter, then remounted it and sent it back!!!

                Didn't tesco have a recyle cards box last year?

                I cut the best bits off to let my children make new ones, or give to pre-schools and the rest get taken to tesco.

                Not sure where the wrapping papaer can go, our recyling collection says it WON'T take it this year.
                I think lots of people will simply fill an extra bin for the dustmen...

                  Our local post office has a big dustbin every year and I take our cards there. The village trust organises it every year for the woodland trust.
