Lighthearted - How long do you display Birthday Cards?

DH’s. Birthday was ten days after mine, so mine were replaced by his.

I leave all the cards up for about a week. Then I keep the ones from the nearest and dearest for about another week.

Mine stay up for a month, after which it's my OH's birthday so he gets the space on the mantelpiece

I usually receive five birthday cards and an e-card. My 70th was last week and I’ll keep them on display until the end of next weekend.

Many happy belated returns for your 70th twiglet77 💐

To the friends & family who go to the trouble & expense of buy a card & stamp, I think it’s a bit miserable of folk to bin after only one day. Unless you genuinely have no room to display them.

I only put the 2 from girls on the window sill in my living room for a few days, if there any others I don’t bother they go in the recycling after a few days but I keep the other 2 in a box.Most birthday greetings are Watsapp messages from from GC and there family’s.

I'm sorry for the spelling and grammer mistakes my addled brain is fried

About a week to 10 days at Scribbles Towers.

A week and they often are displayed with my Mothers Day cards.
My neighbour seems to keep hers up for a month.

And a very Happy 85th Birthday - looks like you’re going to have a great time 🥳🥂🎂🌺

I make bookmarks or gift tags out of the pretty ones.

I get quite a lot ( smug mode) and keep them all up for a full week🤭

A week usually. I always keep the ones my GS sends me. They are mounting up😊!

Happy Birthday, it sounds like you're having a great time.

I keep birthday cards up until I think it's time to remove them, which varies greatly. It's not something I actively think about, so they come down whenever I happen to remove them. It's usually a couple of weeks but this year they were up for about 11 weeks. My wife is the same. They look nice up, there's only us and the cats here, so no big deal for us.

DH’s birthday was over 4 weeks ago, but I only took the cards down for Father’s Day.

You can tell I don’t overwork the dusting front!

Depends. If they are special and or interesting, I put them on the notice board in the kitchen. Otherwise , in the bin after a few days.

One week unless they are home made. I keep these forever.

1 week in this household. My Late MiL, binned them after 24 hrs. When I asked her why after so many folk bothered to select and send them? she just replied, it's not my Birthday now.

Usually a week, but a bit longer for special family (or particularly funny) ones.

Two weeks for me, too. Just like my mum.
