Instead of just throwing your Christmas decorations into a pile in your garage, take a little more time and care this January and make sure your wreaths, ornaments, Christmas trees, and other decorations are not only stored safely, but are also organized. To help, we at TLC Garage Works Inc. have compiled a list of Christmas decoration storage tips. They include:
Storing Christmas Linens: Storing your linens, towels, rugs and blankets in a suitcase is the best way to protect them from moisture and ensure they look just as cheerful next Christmas!
Storing Christmas Wreaths: Be sure to store your wreath in a large enough container. The worst thing you can do is cram a wreath into a box it doesn’t fit in. This will cause it to lose its shape.
Storing Christmas Trees: While it may seem like a good idea, storing your artificial Christmas tree in the same box it came in is actually not a good plan. Cardboard boxes deteriorate, making them prone to insect infestations. Instead, consider Christmas tree bag or Christmas tree box.
Storing Christmas Ornaments: Larger and more delicate ornaments should be stored in the box that they came in. Smaller ornaments can be organized and stored in egg cartons.
Storing Christmas Candles: The best way to store candles is to wrap them each in a sock to prevent scratching. Also be sure to store them in an area where they will not melt.
Storing Christmas Lights: Organizing Christmas lights before you pack them is a great way to save time next December. Instead of untangling strands of lights, you will be able to take them out of storage and get right to work decorating your home.
Labeling Your Christmas Decorations: Another great way to save time next year is to properly label boxes and bins this year!
Adding Garage Storage Space: This is where TLC Garage Works can help you to better store and organize your Christmas decorations!
