Get Organized: Fa la la voilà

For many, the day after Christmas is the time to take advantage of all the deals on festive decorations, holiday décor and all things that make this season so special. However, as your collection grows you’ll need some Christmas storage solutions to organize all those Christmas villages, ornaments, lights strands, wreaths, snow globes and holiday tableware.


The most important thing is to arrange and store things in a way where everything is easily accessible for next year. One of the simplest ways to do this is to label your boxes and other storage containers, and write down on a master inventory what you’ve stored in each container.

Wrap it

Protect your artificial Christmas tree with a storage bag that allows trees up to 9 feet high to be stored fully assembled. They come attached to a two-way rolling tree stand, so you can easily roll your tree into place. Then when you want to put it away just pull up the bag and wheel the tree to storage. christmaslightsetc.com

SMART SOLUTIONS

Store it

Untangling the Christmas lights is a tedious chore and one many avoid by just buying new lights. But with a little preparation untangling the lights doesn’t have to be so difficult.  A Christmas light storage reel and a bag can organize and store your Christmas lights safely and easily. Plus, the storage bag is coated on the interior to resists moisture, dirt, and dust. wayfair.com
