If you’re anything like me, you’re probably still trying to recover from the holidays. By this point, most of my decor has been put away and as I mentioned last week, I am working on improving my storage spaces.
Do you have a designated way you store wrapping supplies? I’ve used a method for the past 5 years and I have to say, it works wonders. I seem to collect very little actual wrapping paper, only 1-2 rolls at a time, but bows and boxes and tissue paper?? I’ve got them coming out. my. ears. It gets a little out of control. So are you ready for my big secret?!? Here it is!
Yep, that’s right, it’s a large gift bag! But wait, there’s more. . .
What may initially appear as a large bag full of wrapping stuff is actually a well thought out, time-tested storage system.
1. In the back of the bag, store gift boxes. They fold flat and are a great go-to for odd shaped gifts.
2. In the middle, gift bags. They come in all shapes and sizes and are great for every occasion.
3. In the front, tissue paper. All shades are welcome here, but for me there’s no replacement for classic white.
4. Last but not least, the cherry on top. The finishing touch, the bows, the ribbons, the tags, the little things that make gifts look extra special.
At the end of the day the whole bag hangs on a hanger in my craft closet.
Now, I know what you’re asking. . . what about the wrapping paper? It leans against the wall just beneath the bag.
How do you store wrapping paper?
