Organizing Hoilday Decor

Organizing holiday decor can make the process of decorating and storing much easier.

​Here are some tips on how to organize holiday decor:


1. Sort and categorize: Start by sorting your holiday decorations into categories such as ornaments, lights, garlands, and figurines. This will help you see what you have and make it easier to find specific items when you need them.


2. Use clear storage containers: Invest in clear plastic storage containers with lids to store your holiday decor. Clear containers allow you to see what's inside without having to open each one. Label the containers with the contents or use color-coded labels for different types of decorations.


3. Wrap lights around cardboard or use reels: To prevent tangled lights, wrap them around pieces of cardboard or use reels specifically designed for storing lights. This will keep them organized and ready to use next year.


4. Protect fragile items: Use bubble wrap, tissue paper, or old newspaper to wrap fragile ornaments or decorations. Place them in individual compartments within the storage container to prevent damage.


5. Utilize storage solutions: Maximize storage space by using hooks, hangers, or storage bins specifically designed for holiday decor. Hang wreaths or garlands on hooks, store smaller items in bins with dividers, and use vertical space to your advantage.


6. Create a designated storage area: Designate a specific area in your home, such as a closet or basement, to store your holiday decor. Keep all the containers together in one place so that they are easy to find when you need them.


7. Declutter and donate: Take the opportunity to declutter your holiday decor as well. If you have items that you no longer use or love, consider donating them to someone who will appreciate them.


Remember, the key to organizing holiday decor is to have a system in place that works for you. Find a method that suits your needs and helps you easily access and store your decorations.
