what would you think of a holiday card.....
a photo card that has 2 photos--one of a family's house before renovations and one of the family standing in front of the house after extensive renovations? The "after" picture is not focused on the family b/c the house is big and the people standing in front of it look small by comparison. The house was not decorated for the holidays in either photo. As you can probably tell, I wasn't crazy about this particular card.
ETA:: The card says "Happy Holidays from our "new" home to yours."

Re: what would you think of a holiday card.....
I edited the original post to explain that the card says "Happy Holidays from our "new" home to yours."
I just think that it is too focused on a material thing.

That's weird.
Last year my neighbors were having a ton of work done and they had their girls sit on top of a pile of lumber that was in the driveway with shovels wearing Santa hats. I thought that was cute.

Re: what would you think of a holiday card.....
I actually don't find it strange. My holiday card this year was two photos. One of us from Christmas last year in front of the big tree and then one of our new house we bought in October - which was decorated for Thanksgiving at the time. (it's the photo in my current avatar)
Then, we included our new address and I personally wrote - from our new home to yours...
I think its cute - didn't get an complaints and I would know if there were.

gotta love when people feel they need to show off their ability to spend money
I don't think its trying to show off their moeny at all... i think they were just Excited.
I don't think its the most common thing for a holiday card, but i like when cards are personal like that and seeing updates that people have in their lives.

I agree with this. Not typical but nothing wrong with it at all. I'm sure they put a lot of time and money into making their house their home, to them that's a big deal and if it's finally finished probably big news they want to share with family and friends.

I tend to agree - I know I would be super excited to have a large scale renovation project completed. It's not your typical kids, pets, family photo but I don't think of it as showing off. Just as I don't think people that post home renovations on LIF as showing off - they are just sharing their excitement!
