If you are a fan of Seinfeld, you may recall George Costanza lamenting a childhood sans mantle.
I believe the exact quote (confirmed by Wikipedia) was, “If my parents had a mantle, I might be a completely different person.”
I grew up without a mantle as well. And while I’m not sure I would have turned out any differently, it would sure be a heck of a lot easier to display Christmas cards!
Behold Domino’s clever and chic Christmas card display. Notice there isn’t a mantle in sight.
They even say it’s OK to use cards from Christmas’ past. They do, however, suggest you spend $129 on a fabric bulletin board. I say to nix this silliness. Buy a cheapo cork board from an Office supply store, wrap in some leftover wrapping paper and go to town.
