I store most of my ornaments in those big popcorn tins. I wrap them in toilet paper or bubble wrap. These tins serve more than one purpose for my family:
1. I use them to store the ornaments.
2. I use them to store small decorations.
3. I use them to store garlands and lights.
4. When the house is decorated for the holidays, I use 1 tin to store all of the bubble wrap and toilet paper.
5. The rest are used for storing small gifts under the tree, so the gifts do not look so messy.
6. This year I will give up one of my tins for my 17 year old daughter. I have made and collected so many ornaments and decorations over the years that I seem to be overrun with them. On top of that, I made more this year. I decided to go through everything and pack away a tin of ornaments and decorations for my daughter to use for her first Christmas in her own home.
