Recycling Old Christmas Cards

Posted on December 8, 2025

I save my old Christmas cards to be recycled into Christmas ornaments and tags. Here is the crochet picture tutorial showing how to recycle your old Christmas cards.

Christmas Card Ornaments from old cards

I cut the round ornaments using plastic lids as templates. It works really well to make a nice round Christmas ornament. Once cut and holes punched, you just need to single crochet around the ornament.

Here are some gift tags I made using old cards. I used a die cutter to cut out the tags which can be used instead of store-bought tags.
