I dont have the heart to throw out a picture of a baby so I keep them in a shoe box along with other random pictures. But if its a picture of a pet or an entire adult family I throw it away.

Re: What do you do with all of the "picture" holiday cards you receive...

I throw them out, unless the picture is really great - then I might cut off the Christmas card and save the picture for a while.

Throwing them out never bothered me. Chances are, if we're close, I have much better pics of your child on display. Chat Icon

I save the ones of family members, but discard the others.



ditto, and I wouldn't be offended if people told me they throw away my cards with Ava on them after the holidays, either.

Re: What do you do with all of the "picture" holiday cards you receive...

I have no room in my house as it is.
I have no choice but to toss.
I used to keep them- but then one day realized- why am i keeping these? It's not like I ever go back and look at them.
They basically sat in a box forever.
So now- TOSS!

Re: What do you do with all of the "picture" holiday cards you receive...

I have a material Christmas album that says "The Gr**Sso" (our last name) on the front.

And I keep all the christmas photos that we get in it. Every Christmas I put the book on our coffee table.

My mom does the same thing...and its fun to look at all the old pictures.

I cut out the pics and put them in a place for my daughter to look at them when she wants to - so she'll never miss her friends and family.

I also keep them, if I'm putting them into an album, I cut off the Christmas greeting and just keep the picture.

OMG! Chat Icon

I can't throw away photos (ok 99%)

I display them either on the fridge or around my doorway on ribbon.

After the holidays they go in a big album I have kept over the years of photo holiday cards, announcements, etc. It goes back over 10 years. I leave the Holiday message part on so I know what year it was


(there were a few in there that were 6 years old+ and I haven't seen or spoken to the person in that long... those I got rid of - it took me six years I *do* have a problem
