I have a small area in which I do a lot of crafts. My collection of wrapping paper seems to grow this time of the year. Here's a way I make my small area more efficient and a space saver with cup hooks, wood dowels and plastic or metal chains. I suspend the chains underneath my shelves and run my dowels through the chains. The chains are attached underneath the counter with cup hooks.
After Christmas, if you take your leftover Christmas wrap off the roll, roll it back up, and place it inside the cardboard holder it will keep better for next year. By Sharon
I put my left over Christmas wrapping paper inside the legs of the pantyhose and hang in the closet until next year.
Reuse tin foil boxes to store small amounts of leftover wrapping paper. Wax paper boxes can also be used for this purpose.
I use one of those under the bed storage boxes for organizing my gift wrapping. Along with all the wrapping paper, I keep scissors and cellophane tape, ribbons, sticky labels and card tags along with birthday cards and a few left over Christmas cards.
I came across this idea and it is perfect. Screw in four wall anchors, and run galvanized wire to support about a dozen large rolls of wrapping paper on your ceiling closet. No more ruined wrapping paper!
When I have a large roll of wrapping paper, I will only take one half of the cellophane off the wrapper and cut pieces of the top half of the wrapping paper, leaving the bottom still intact in the cellophane and nice and neat.
You can hang wrapping paper on shower hooks on a towel bar,or in a closet.That way it will not get ruined like most of mine does.
I use my tall brass umbrella "bucket" to store rolls of wrapping paper. All of my umbrellas are the small, compact type that get lost in the stand, so it works well for storing the wrapping paper.
Here is a new use for my empty 3 liter soda bottle, a frugal rolled paper storage solution. Just remove the top and bottom.
After years of juggling with my many wrapping and tissue papers, gift bags, and ribbons I designated one of my rarely used pieces of luggage to hold these items. It is easy to take out into a room to wrap gifts too! Everything in one place.
Cleaning out storage and closets and I found a whole bunch of wrapping paper that I didn't realize I had! To keep your wrapping paper neat and tidy, you can put them in a box.
