Organizing Christmas Gifts

Posted in Organization

I begin Christmas shopping December 26th each year. I need to be able to store all of the gifts that I purchase throughout the year. I do this on a big white bookshelf in my bedroom. It has 5 big shelves, and I can even utilize the top. I do not generally wrap gifts before December, though I may begin to. I actually keep paper shopping bags on the shelves to put the items that I purchase in.

Hi,
I haven't been by in awhile, but I just couldn't resist commenting here. I too shop for Christmas all year round and tuck things away, as I find them, as I have the money, etc. However, I'm coveting your white bookshelf for a different reason. I have a ton of books that need a home. Never mind all those that already have a home. I usually keep all my prospective gifts in boxes under a bed or in the back of a closet. You are way more organized than I ever expect to be.

Blessings & Merry Christmas Wishes!
