Organizing Christmas Decorations: How I Do It

by Mandi on January 3, 2009

In this week’s vlog, I invite you inside my home as I pack away all of my Christmas decorations, organizing them to make my life easier when it’s time to unpack them next year.

Note: As this was my first vlog in this series, I didn’t know that my camera can’t handle recording my voice when I stand too far away, so I apologize if I’m hard to understand in some places. I’ll be sure to do it differently next week to try and avoid that!

    I just finished going through all my Christmas boxes, getting rid of stuff we never use and organizing everything. I’ve thrown away all my paper boxes and bought new plastic bins. Our decorations are stiil up (except for the tree and ornaments), but I’ll be taking everything down and packing it away tomorrow.
    I love this article, Christmas doesn’t have to be a nightmare!!!

    Hey Mandi,
    I organized a friend this year and that is exactly how I did it, even before seeing your site. I do understand how frustrating it can be when it doesn’t fit the “system”. Here is an idea for you nativity what if you wrapped itin red paper so it matches the red storage bins. You could actually do that for anything that doesn’t fit. That way it would stand out as Christmas. Just a thought.
