CHRISTMAS PREP

Welcome back to this post I shared last year of my Christmas Prep with Me.  Today, we will be focusing on bringing the Christmas decorations down so I can take inventory of things I want to use and what I need to revamp or give a makeover to.

 

I need to bring down my tubs from the attic, remove the frames I have tucked under a bed, bring out my holiday pillows and throws and take out the Christmas floral arrangements from the closet.  The items above are the things I know I need to take inventory of incase I need to revamp or buy more of.

It is always best to gather your pieces together and take inventory of things you have before starting to decorate.  I have a tub full of different styled garlands, I took inventory of them and placed them in one of the guest rooms until I am ready to decorate with them.

Next, was my wreath supply.  We all love using wreaths during the holidays, using a wreath storage bag is a great way to store them.  During my decorating I keep the bag up on a door hook, this allows me to grab a wreath I want to use easily.

While up in the attic I also grabbed my Christmas stem storage bag.  This is no different than my Fall, Easter or everyday stem storage bags.  I use a small Christmas tree bag to hold all seasonal stems in.  It is a great way to keep your stems together.

I pulled them all out of the tote and divided them into groups, placing them in baskets.  This helps to keep them organized and easy to grab when needing a certain stem.

Those are the only things I brought down from the attic, right now.  I have many more tubs to bring down later.  Now to my Christmas frames.  I keep them all under a bed in one of our guest bedrooms.  Not only is it a great space to keep them tucked away but it is a climate-controlled space which helps them to keep from being damage.  It works for me; in the other guest bedroom I keep my Easter and Fall frames under the bed.  Once I pull them out from under the bed, I place them where I can easily go through them to grab the frame I want to use.

I keep all my Christmas pillows and throws in storage bins in a guest closet.  I pull them out to get ready to decide which ones will be use this season.  I place them on the guest bed to have easy access to them.

Other items I pull from the closet, are my Christmas arrangements.  I like to keep them on a shelf in my craft closet.  Storing them on a shelf keeps them from being smashed in a tub or bag.

Well, it looks like I have my inventory complete, I have my list of things I want to get.  Tomorrow I will be prepping the house for Christmas decorating.  I hope you come back here tomorrow!  Thanks for coming by today!
