Storing Wreaths

I have several seasonal wreaths for my door. When changing them, I hang them on a hangar, then into a spare closet. Easily organized by holiday or season & can be covered by a small trash bag to keep the dust away. Each particular wreath is now easily found instead of digging out a big storage box.

Box it on Out

When you have to clean your house, use two Boxes, 1 for Keeps, 1 for Donation and 1 for Trash. All you have to do is put boxes either on the curb or in the car to take to the donation station. Go through the Keep box and put the stuff in its proper place. It helps to keep yourself organized.

Carrying your prescriptions abroad

You must have your medicines identifiable in traveling. Save one set of old prescription bottles and fill with amount of medications you will need to take while traveling. No need to carry full bottles of pills.

Getting rid of junk mail.

I have a good sized paper shredder, and I shred all the "black and white" junk mail and put it in "used plastic bags for recycle ever week or so. I do not shred the "colored printed" paper because I am not sure that is reusable because of the ink. So I use separate used plastic bags for it. I do this every day, at my desk at home, but it could be done once a week. I also line my shredder container with several bags, and I also keep (under my desk) several used plastic bags.

Cookie Tin Ornament Keeper

An empty Christmas cookie tin makes a great storage place for delicate or special "homemade" ornaments from your children or grandchildren! Wrap delicates with SCOTT® Towels and place in appropriate size tin. Place special "homemades" between towels for extra protection and place in tin. Tins are usually received as gifts so no expense there and being tin, they are extra sturdy. Place a label on top and you know exactly what's in it next year. It's worked great for me for years!
