How to Use Leftover Wrapping Paper to Pack Christmas Decorations

Video Transcript

"Hi. I'm Karina Fraley for Expert Village and today I'm giving you some tips on how to pack your Christmas decorations away. Well, this final tip is actually about your wrapping paper. I'm sure that you have plenty left over after, even after wrapping all of your gifts. And then if you replenish at the end of the season and when it's discounted. You're going to want a place to store your paper safely so that it doesn't get damaged throughout the year. And one of the neatest ways you can possibly do this. One of the best ways that you can do this is with a bin like this. They actually have under the bed bins as well but this is one of my favorites and I'm going to tell you why. Because it stands up very nicely in a closet and it really does take rolls of very different lengths, varying lengths. And this one's actually very tall. And as you can see I'm actually kind of short so it's kind of funny but I'm going to get up on my tippy toes here and we're going to put that in there. So you can see that it holds many roles of wrapping paper. And then this is the lid. Which I'm not actually going to put up there because it's too high for me from this angle. But I'm going to show you something that I like about this lid. You can open it up like this. And without ever taking the top off you can just put your hand in, pull out whatever wrapping paper you need. Use it, put it back and then go ahead and close it. So, if you don't have a plethora of wrapping paper left over, of Christmas wrapping paper left over, you can go ahead and use this for all kinds of wrapping paper. For birthdays, anniversaries, whatever it is you have. And then they're always at hand. It's very handy and it's a great way to store. It's a great investment. Very inexpensive and I highly recommend you picking one up."
