I have a Country Living Magazine that has an article in it about just collecting glass pitchers and I always thought that would be a good thing to have so not better time than the present to start collecting them. The article showed all different types displayed and it looked really nice. I think your idea of folding the cards will work out better. I will do that instead. They easy to display that way. Thanks also for the site Halloweenfonts.com I will definately check that out tonight when I get home.

LOL!!! I love, love, love Home Goods. I told my kids we were going to go there on Sunday and they scream. I use it as punishment for them, because they know I'll be there for at least an hour every time. Home Goods may have the pitchers, but you know they can be hit or miss. I know Target carries the ones I bought year round. You can always use a glass pitcher.
I also liked the clear glass pitchers opposed to color, because it shows off the color of your mixed drinks. I made rum punch last year (equal parts cranberry juice, pineapple juice and Malibu rum) and then tinted it with food coloring (made it green) and it looks wonderful in the pitchers. I think I'll make it purple this year because of the Poisoned Apple Martinis.
And Country Living is great - particularly the Halloween edition. I'm still trying to find the black hobnail cake plate they featured on the cover last year. I don't think I'll ever find it at a reasonable price, but I'll keep looking. They have some great simple, elegant ideas. Some are very country-but you can change them up for your purposes.
