Organizing Ornaments

I have a few favorite ways 

 to organize my Christmas ornaments.

 I like to use plastic bins that have cardboard dividers.

 I use coffee filters to cushion each ornament.

 Then I add another layer.

 I label the boxes, some are for the

Living Room Tree, some Family Room Tree.

 I use tennis cans for all kinds of storage.

 (see more uses HERE , HERE, and HERE.) 

They work great for small things, they are

 unbreakable, see-thru and free. 

 I can store dozens in a bin.

 Keeps everything sorted, and visible.

 I use egg cartons for the smaller ornaments.

The Waterford ornaments each have their
own velvet pouch.

They are kept in this red tin,

My smaller family room decorations are
stored in these 3 tiered organizers.

Each has divided sections.
This basket contains all the heart ornaments.
I can use those for Valentine's Day as well.

They stack and fit inside this large
 Longaberger basket.

Another basket with 2 tiered sectional inserts.

Bottom tier on another one.

I flip the Christmas liners inside and store

The baskets on top of the armoire in the Family room.

Some family room tree ornaments get sorted,
 wrapped and put into cookie tins
by category. All the tins can be stored
on shelves in the,

 'I wish I had a real' attic.
It's more of a crawl space up there.
 They can also be put into a very large bin

Once emptied, I use the tins under the
 tree for decoration too.

"What goes up must come down"

Cheers!
