"I'm Karina Fraley for Expert Village, and today I'm giving you some ideas on how to pack away your Christmas decorations so that they're kept safe and sound until next year. One of the best ways to keep all of your decorations and ornaments intact is to actually preserver the boxes that they came in so that you can repack them again afterwards. Some things can go into big plastic bins, and some boxes just aren't practical to keep. Once it's stacked nicely or ones for over sized pieces are really a good idea to keep around. Then you can go ahead and when you go into the garage, the attic, or wherever it is you're going to store your decorations, you can go ahead and take into consideration the size and the weight of the boxes and pack them coordinately. This is the box that these ornaments came in. There were 14 ornaments. Rather than just throw them into a box by themselves jumping all over the place, I'm going to go ahead and pack them right back into the same box that they came in. Then next year, I'm going to be able to go ahead and pull them out. I'll have all of my ornaments grouped together. These are all the same thing, obviously. They came in a pack. It's a really great way to store your little ornaments like this. Join me in the next clip, and we'll pack these up to go."
