Beautiful holiday photo cards that are easy to make. So you might actually send them.

Beautiful holiday photo cards that are easy to make. So you might actually send them.
Last year we discovered the beautiful new holiday card company, Pinhole Press. And this year, the company has a whole new lineup of cards--so I'm glad to have discovered them myself. Let's just say making holiday cards stresses me out so much, I usually put them off for a long time. Like until February.

But this year, I just may have cards out to family and friends in time for the holidays. And I don't mean Groundhog Day.

The process is incredibly simple. You choose from one of the stunning card options (there is no wrong decision here--they're all lovely, really), key in the message, and upload the photos into an easy-to-navigate template. I made the sweetest cards in truly about five minutes. I haven't sent them yet, but that's another story. And everyone we know who's ordered from them has been so delighted with the quality.

This year we're excited to see Pinhole Press has added some other custom items too, like calendars, notepads, brag books, which is a fabulous idea for holiday presents. (Is there a great grandparent alive who doesn't like a photo of the kids on everything?)

One strong tip: consider spending the extra cash for shipping options that go beyond standard ground so you can track your order, especially as we get closer to the holidays. Also, I suggest you order now if you want to be sure to get them out to everyone by the time jingle bells ring.    -Lexi
