If you are looking for an easy, inexpensive way to store your ornaments, I have it!! One of my hubbies favorite things every Christmas season is buying himself a tin of popcorn to snack on. 🙂 One year, many moons ago, I got a wild notion that these would be perfect containers for our ornaments. And, every since then that’s exactly what we have used. It works out perfectly since every year I seem to add a few ornaments, and every year he purchases a new tin!! I like that they are small, so I don’t tend to cram them full, and things don’t seem to shift around much in there.
My method is simple and basic, using only the tins and plastic shopping bags.
I start by lining the bottom of the tin with a bag, and then I start layering. For the ornaments that aren’t breakable I simple lay them in the tin separating each layer with a plastic bag.
For the ornaments that are more fragile, they get wrapped. I use the plastic shopping bags for these as well.
And again, layered, gently on top of each other. As I said, I have been doing this for years with no casualties!! Easy and inexpensive, especially if you have someone in your family who likes popcorn!! 🙂
Blessings!!
