Holiday Storage: Gift Wrap

 As the Holidays approach, it seems we get busier and busier, leaving us rushing around trying to get things done at the last minute. Wouldn't it help to get things organized now? Over the next few weeks, I will be sharing some helpful tips on Holiday organization. The first installment is dedicated to Gift Wrapping. If you're like most mothers (or women in general?), you undoubtedly have a million bows and ribbons and wrapping odds and ends stashed away somewhere. You might even be guilty of buying new because you just don't want to make the effort of digging through your mess to get to them. Waste no more.

a. Wrapping Paper Bag $9.99, organize.com
(Simple solution for you minimalists)
b. Long Underbed Boxes $23.95 , The Container Store

(Personal Fav. Can be purchased without ribbon seperators for $13.99)
 

Snap & Stack Ribbon Dispenser $11.49, The Container Store

(Personal Fav. I like that you can buy them individually to fit your needs) 

a. Gift Wrap Cart $195.18, The Container Store

(A pricier solution, but fits every need.  Notice the ribbon spool holder bar on the left side.)

b. Gift Wrap Work Station $49, The Container Store

(Can be hung in your closet for easy access)

So, get your hiny in gear and get organized! You will be thankful when December 23rd rolls around and you have a jumble of gifts to wrap.  Until next time, happy organizing.
