Use decorative holiday cards and send warm wishes and happy greetings to friends and loved ones during the festive season. Card sets include colorful postal envelopes, so recipients receive merry mail that stands out from ordinary business letters. Several designs are available, including humorous and modern, to celebrate the season and spread peace, love, and joy. Staples has a large assortment of celebratory items, such as creative gift boxes and coffee mugs with chocolate, to make every holiday season special and memorable.

Consider the reasons to use holiday cards
Complement gifts with beautiful handwritten mementos on durable cardstock that last well after the celebrations are over. Money, gift certificates, movie tickets, and more fit nicely inside sturdy cards and make it easy to stuff stockings and to pass out tokens of appreciation at work and school parties. Style envelopes with decorative tape and glitter to add a touch of personality to the message. Card and envelope sets are available in packs of 12 or more and are a thoughtful and convenient way to send warm wishes throughout the season. Shiny adhesive seals add sophistication and guarantee the envelopes remain closed during transport.

Choose specific holiday cards for the occasion
Refreshing and relaxing landscape pictures, such as a starfish wreath in front of an ocean, show readers a different holiday scene than a snowy winterland. Consider musical card greetings that have movable figures that dance to holiday tunes, like The Nutcracker, with an easy push of a button. The musical messages are available in packs of two and deliver a harmonious holiday tune to friends and relatives. Card covers with detailed artwork provide a picturesque background when placed on mantels and shelves. Styles with blank interiors leave ample space for personal messages and well wishes, and other varieties include popular holiday phrases for senders to wish recipients the best for the season.

Are there alternative uses for holiday cards?
Yes. Cut round circles from a variety of decorative cards, punch holes at the top, string pipe cleaners or rubber bands through the entry, and you have wine charms to use at the next seasonal party and celebration. Front covers can easily fit inside a picture frame for a way to add artwork throughout a home and office. It’s simple to turn photographic styles into postcards by separating the pictures and writing on the back. All that is needed is a stamp. Create gift tags by cutting clean squares from colorful pictures, fold, and tape on a gift box.

Where are some places to send holiday cards?
Network with new clients and businesses and send a thoughtful sentiment to introduce products and services in the area. Beautiful handwritten notes on linen paper show appreciation to teachers and classmates for their help throughout the year. Box sets make it easy to send off several greetings at once, such as to hospitals and community centers.

Are holiday cards recyclable?
It depends. Some recycling centers will not accept cards that have glitter, felt, ribbon, and embellishments other than paper. It’s recommended to remove those items. Check with the local recycling center to understand the types of recyclables they accept.
