I wanted to display these vintage postcards in a way that we could enjoy them.   I decided I would decorate a Christmas tree with them. I liked how it turned out.

I had a star tree topper on top and draped gold glitter fabric underneath.  I have found a great new use for my vintage postcard collection!
