I finally boxed up my Xmas decorations today. Yay!!!
It's not as bad as it may seem. You see, I had them in all sorts of odd boxes and I wanted to rearrange them into a few identically-sized ones. And by type. OK, I got a bit obsessive about it.
Like, what goes with a 20 pound enameled steel tree stand? I had door-sized ribbons, large bubble-lights, plastic 2' candy canes, a WHOLE lot of glass pine cones/icicles/snowflakes, bird nests with wooden eggs, etc, etc, etc.
And trying to use identical-sized boxes as I mentioned.
Well, I did it. And here's the cool thing. I took 2' along the wall of the cat's room (they are OK with that, I asked first) a few years ago and installed a pipe up near the ceiling. And hung shower curtains exactly that height on the pipe. I even store the vacuum cleaners and such behind there.
Looks great. The Xmas boxes are all packed in (stack perfectly). Done... They are packed so nicely, I might not even decorate next Xmas... ;) Its the thought that counts, right?
