I don't mind the glitter on cards. My Christmas cards had glitter this year. I think of it as a reminder of years ago when nobody cared, and they looked forward to receiving cards that almost always had it in some form. I figure it's a good excuse to get out the vacuum cleaner that's probably overdue anyway.The Wykeham Observerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04223636697571715201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-88715377460662140672018-12-28T15:49:29.371-06:002018-12-28T15:49:29.371-06:00Gosh!Gosh!Jenn Jilkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05259681360456905055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-17600175238896807492018-12-28T14:48:53.903-06:002018-12-28T14:48:53.903-06:00We hate those sprinkles!

This year our "bad glitter" was some gift wrapping paper I bought. It was beautiful and in the package I did not realize the glitter was the type to come off and go everywhere. I will be finding and cleaning up glitter for some time after Christmas I fear.
