Avoid the Headaches of Holiday Decorating

Whether you’re starting to dust off your decorations and sifting through boxes of ornaments, lights, and wreaths or working to store it away for off-season, you are likely thinking about a better way to organize your holiday boxes. Although the holidays are generally a time for celebration and happiness, lugging unorganized bins of random holiday decorations out of your attic or garage and having to untangle endless strings of lights or clean up broken glass ornaments can be a headache-inducing experience.

At least while you’re setting up your decorations, you have something to look forward to as you decorate your Charlotte home or business for the holidays. The real frustration begins when it’s all finally over and it’s time to take down and disassemble your decorations and put them into storage. Cramming wreaths, lights, and ornaments into miscellaneous bins will only increase your anger when the holidays inevitably arrive once again, and the whole process must be repeated.

Making sure your decorations are readily accessible for the holidays can help streamline your experience and make it much less frustrating overall. Luckily, the professionals at GarageExperts of Charlotte can provide you with solutions for your garage storage needs. Our customizable cabinets and slatwall organization systems can help you avoid a headache this holiday season by getting your holiday decorations tidied up for years to come.

Creative Ways to Organize Your Holiday Decorations

There is an endless amount of creative DIY methods for organizing your holiday decorations. Many of them involve simple, cheap items that you might already have lying around the house. These tips can help you take your holiday decorations from being a chaotic mess to being well organized and efficiently stored, saving you storage space and time.

A few of our favorite holiday decoration storage ideas include:

Organize ornaments by color in drawers or small bins: Organizing your delicate ornaments by color and into smaller containers will make setting them up easier and more efficient. In addition, by adding some padding such as an old towel or foam, they will be better protected than if they were loosely placed into a larger container.
Hang wreaths on hooks on a slatwall system: Utilizing one of our slatwall storage systems, decorative wreaths can easily be hung on hooks and kept out of the way while remaining easy to access.
Use egg cartons to protect and organize small decorations: Old egg cartons are a useful and common household item for storing smaller ornaments and decorations and will also help keep them protected from shattering.
Wrap strands of lights around coffee cans: Untangling strands of lights is one of the most frustrating parts of decorating for the holidays. Wrapping your lights around some old coffee cans will help keep them organized and make them much easier to unravel and put away when the time comes.
Place items on overhead shelves to keep them out of the way: The holidays only come around once per year, and you won’t want to be digging through decorations in July just to try and find something else. If you keep your holiday decorations consolidated to overhead storage bins, they will remain out of the way for the rest of the year while still being relatively easy to access when December comes around again.

These tips are just the beginning of getting your holiday decorations organized. Once you’ve untangled your lights and sorted your ornaments, you still need to find a convenient and orderly place to put everything. That’s where GarageExperts of Charlotte comes in.
