Display postcards on a freestanding card rail

Rotate a few small pictures without fixing anything to the wall or placing adhesive on the postcards themselves.

Rotate a few small pictures without fixing anything to the wall or placing adhesive on the postcards themselves. Gather a long piece of sturdy card, a ruler, a pencil, and postcards.

Set it up

Mark two parallel folds along the card so it can form a wide triangular base with a narrow front lip.

Put the idea to work

Fold the base firmly and tuck the postcard lower edges behind the lip, checking that the pictures lean back slightly.

Finish and keep it useful

Place the rail on a stable shelf and rotate the cards when you want a different small display. Do not load the rail with heavy framed photographs that the folded card cannot support securely.
