My lovely friend, Caren, asked me how I store my wrapping paper (gift wrap).
I blogged about it before here but since a few years have passed, I thought I’d show you a quick update.
Organising gift wrap and ribbons
The truth is that I love paper and even though I am actively on a mission to reduce and simplify all the time, the birthdays mean they come in almost as quickly as they go out, especially gift bags.
I also told myself no more buying of wrapping paper until I saw those lovely chevron papers at Pick and Pay. I’m afraid I couldn’t resist them at R6,99 per roll.
Anyway, I have two places I store them – still that spot under my shelves. The bin has now changed to purple and it’s in a basket to allow for some other things like big sheets of cardboard.
And then I have a deep plastic container for most of the gift bags – this one lives next to my desk.
How do you store your gift wrap? Do you use wrapping paper or gift bags?
PS please let me know if you want to see other storage solutions in my home.
