As most of you know I've been cleaning and decluttering my storage room. As I pull everything out I'm grouping it by "holiday or season". I really want to reduce the clutter but how do you cut down on holiday decorations?
Do you store your decorations by room or specific area or do you just pile it all together until next year. I had it all organized by room when I was utilizing my attic but since it began melting all of my decorations I moved it all to a storage room off the garage and it's much smaller (12 x 10) than my whole house decked attic.
I did make the decision to leave my artificial trees upright instead of taking them all apart and shoving them into bags. I have alot more vertical space than I do horizontal so this helps. I'm also thinking of putting large hooks into the ceiling to store the garlands instead of taking them all apart and cramming them into totes every year.
Any ideas and suggestions are welcomed.
