Card Collection

Reading Jek's Week in Review gave me the inspiration I needed to clean up the messy half of my office, which up until recently, had stark empty walls behind a heap of boxes filled with clutter and a whole lot of Stuff. Armed with a lot of good ideas, I enthusiastically organized my shiz and though it took a long time, I'm pleased with my new space.



I felt inspired to arrange my cards this way after reading The Art of Jordan's How to do a home office makeover post. To set up this type of inspiration board, all you need are some nails, twine and a hammer. It's a brilliant way to showcase my card collection.

wow what a gorgeous card collection! such a nice way to display them I think, so you can see them and look at them for ages, instead of being stored away in a safe place.

Thanks! I have The Art of Jordan to thank for this. Otherwise, these cards would still be in a box, hidden from the light of day.

@lady elle: Thank you! :D

@SHOKOOFEH: I'm glad you can use this idea, too. The clothesline arrangement really is a wonderful way to share your cards -- as a collective, a wall of art.
