Hello and welcome into the Piles of Paragraphs Creative Space! I’m Lori, and today I’m sharing a cozy holiday paper crafting project where I transform vintage Christmas postcards into happy mail ephemera holders.

I found these adorable vintage-style holiday postcards and decided they would be perfect for sending along a little extra something to my swap partners. In this video, I walk you through my first attempt at turning postcards into functional ephemera pockets using lightweight card stock, simple folds, and basic supplies from my stash.

If you enjoy relaxed, real-time crafting with a bit of trial and error (and lots of creativity), this one’s for you. As always, feel free to adapt this idea and decorate it even more to fit your own style.

✨ If you enjoyed this video, please give it a thumbs up, leave a comment (I truly love hearing from you!), and subscribe if you haven’t already. It really helps support the channel.

Thanks so much for crafting along with me today — and I hope you’ve had a chance to do something creative too!
