7 Genius Ways to Organize Your Seasonal Decor

INSIDE: CHECK OUT THESE 7 GENIUS WAYS TO ORGANIZE ALL YOUR SEASONAL DECOR

Why is it important to make sense of your holiday decorations? Because it will save you time when you need to pull them out next year!!!! If you have more than one box of holiday decorations, check out these 7 decoration storage ideas.

1 – Color Coordinate

Pick up boxes that match the color of the holiday.

Red and Green for Christmas, Purple for Halloween, Orange for fall, Pink for spring….you get the idea.

2 – Ornament Storage

You gotta keep ’em separated….

I have this exact box but over the years we have accumulated more ornaments than this one box can hold. My solution was to just throw the rest of the ornaments in the bottom of another box…well this year that came back to bite me. I have ornaments in 4 boxes and it makes NO sense! So I need to purchase another one of these!

3 – Wreath Storage

Wreaths are delicate little things. They need to be protected from the harsh throwing of the oldest child while he’s putting the Christmas decor away in the attic. At least that’s how it works in my house.

4 – Wrapping Paper

I have wrapping paper all over the place. Some for birthdays, some for Christmas….I never know where it is or how much I have. SO here is my solution:

Maybe I will get 2 – one for Christmas, one for Birthdays/all other holidays….I think we are on to something. Plus – there is room at the top of the organizer for tape and scissors.

5 – Bows, Ribbons, Tags, & Bags

I am not big on the bows and ribbons. Honestly, I think I’m lazy, but it seems unnecessary. When I’m unwrapping gifts, I find the ribbons slow me down and I don’t have time for all that. HAHAHA.

However, a LOT of people use these accessories so I found this awesome idea I wanted to share with you.

The Polished Habitat has a great solution using clear organizers.

6 – Label where the pieces go

Take the guess work out of where that garland goes next year by labeling the item this year. If there is more than one box….you can organize by room.

You can make your own labels, use a label maker, or buy some fancy ones like this….but labeling which room they go in can help your helpers help you.

7 – Put your boxes away strategically

Don’t put some in your garage, some in the attic, some at the bottom of your closet…but them all in ONE place if you can. That way, you know where to go for all decorations. This was a MAJOR fault of mine. I had some in a closet, some in the attic, some in the garage….I’ve lost many items because I thought they went in one place and everything else was actually in another. OOPS. Lesson learned.

I would love to have this in the attic/crawl space we have.

Wishfully thinking maybe??
