With all of the Christmas and seasonal décor up in your home at the moment, you may not be thinking about the best way to repackage everything so that your beloved decorations make it safely until next year. Well, no worries! That’s why we are here. We talked recently about the best way to pack up delicate Christmas tree ornaments and now we are going to tackle décor. So, get ready to have your mind blown…not your pocketbooks. Here are some great tips for putting away your lovely and cherished decorations.
Strategize
Throwing all of your decorations into a few bins and labeling them “Christmas” may seem like the easy thing to do, but when you go to get them out later it can be chaotic. Organizing experts recommend taking a few minutes to figure out the best strategy for packing up.
Perhaps you pack up décor in one room and designate a specific container for it. Maybe you take all of your pictures and seasonal artwork and put them away separately. Whatever you choose, being specific about what how you pack up will make decorating next year much simpler.
Recycle Containers
If you have a young child still in diapers, make the most of those sturdy diaper boxes by packing up your decorations in them. Use tissue paper and bubble wrap from this year’s festivities to keep them safe and solid and forgo throwing all that used paper and wrapping materials away.
Have you ever wondered what in the world you are going to do with those decorative Christmas cookie and popcorn tins? These are perfect for your pack up! Label them and when you pull them out again next year you will be feeling festive all over again.
Label Like a Champ
Speaking of labeling, make sure you use a labeling system for everything you pack up. Having a bunch of packed boxes won’t do you much good if you do not know what’s in them. If you don’t want to use tape and markers to do the job, you can use up all your Christmas present labels to get the job done.
Returning to life as usual after the holidays does not have to be a drag. Employ these simple tips from A Mother’s Touch Movers and have some fun! If you need assistance with any packing supplies, be sure to give us a call. We can get you set up for success in no time flat.
