Christmas Ornaments

Christmas Ornaments

How does everyone store them?

I wrap all mine up in tissue paper and then put them into rubbermaid storage containers.

Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Re: Christmas Ornaments

I do layers of bubble wrap. Most of my ornaments are on the flattish side, I have very few that are bulky to store. If I did, I'd probably get one of those ornament containers that they sell at Target and such.

I wrap each in newspaper and store them in a rubbermaid container.

How I store them depends on what and how they're made. I use a lot of rubbermaid storage container in various sizes and wrap the non-glass ornaments in tissue paper.

I have quite a few storage boxes similar to this:

I just purchased acid free archival shredded paper & tisse paper for all my Polish & German glass ornaments:

I haven't figured out what I'm going to store them in yet, but probably the plastic underbed storage containers since some of my ornaments are large/long.

I save the boxes they came in and then place them in the tote for storage.
