Q: I have a question I was hoping for some help with. My mother bought me this Pantone postcard set for Christmas. I have some other Pantone products at home and I would like to use the postcards in my home in some way. I had thought about using them like paint chips in various projects I have seen around the web, but I like the text on the bottom of the cards. I also rent so I can't do anything that involves sticking them to the walls.

How about stringing them into a hanging mobile?
You could just arrange them like a grid in a big frame. Maybe divide them into different color schemes for different pieces and hang them wherever.
I'm not sure what they are actually called, but you can get little double-sided tape squares that won't leave a permanent mark on the wall and use them to arrange them as art. You could do a full rainbow type of piece by layering the rows in graduating colors.
you could use these cards in a variety of ways: purchase some precut birch wood in 12x12 and make compartments the size of the cards and use them as backing in the compartments and add favorite shells, theater ticket stubs, pictures, etc. you could make mini scrapbooks using key rings or spiral binding, use them in similar color groups and make a triptic wall hanging, use them for wall borders, make coasters by decopage on tiles.,
MysticBlue's idea is grt! u could tack them anywhere...
1. Cover ur whole door for a new look...
2. Add them with ur favorite pics as a collage or something n get it framed...
3 .Plaster ur most boring piece of furniture...
4. Arrange them around a mirror to make a new frame...
5. Tack them to blinds( the broader ones) in graduating shades...
6. Fan them out on a table like a deck of cards in a circle n add a decoration piece in d centre
7. And best of all... Take 5 or more metal rings...and fix these post cards vertically between 2 rings using metal wire or clamps...to form a cylindrical structure and use it as a lampshade! :)
Thanks for sharing. i really appreciate it that you shared with us such a informative post... Honeywell Humidifier Filters
This will take a little patience, or a little money. If you're patient, wait until you see that tragic old corkboard at the thrift store that's got water stains on it, and pounce! A little spray paint for the frame, and you can fill it in with your postcards and lean it anywhere! On a side table with some art and books, on your entry table with your keys and purse, etc.
If you have a little money, you could go to a big box retailer like Target, and purchase several smaller cork boards (maybe in the 12" range?) and head over to home depot for a couple 2x4s. Lie the 2x4s flat, and then place your corkboards on top, right against each other in a line. Screw the corkboards to the 2x4s (be sure your screws are long enough to go through the corkboards into the 2x4s, but short enough not to go through the 2x4s into your flooring). When you're done, stand it up and lean it against a wall, and you can tack your postcards in for some vertical color! You can trim the 2x4s so they don't show at the top or bottom, or leave them at the bottom as "legs." Either way, I'd use something at the top to protect the walls, a little felt or some left over fabric glued or stapled to the part of the 2x4s that will touch the wall.
You could use large jump rings to make into a curtain.
