Stylish, affordable, cool Christmas cards from the V&A

    I'm never very organised about Christmas cards - I tend to remember just before last posting date and resort, in a rush, to the least offensive box-full in WHSmith. They're never awful, but never that memorable - and what you hang up around your home during the festive period is just as aesthetically valid as what you hang up the rest of the year, so why inflict drab, style-free cards on your friends and family...

    Especially when you can get a 12-pack of these sweet little things from the V&A shop for just £4.50. A very simple idea: they're photos of vintage tin toys (a 40s/50s wind-up turkey, and a 60s/70s Santa Claus train and Babycham-esque deer) on a clean, white background.
