Over the years, my storage methods for ornaments has been less than stellar. I wrap them in paper towels and place them all in a large plastic bin. Chances are good there’s a casualty or two every year.
This year, I decided to do it right and buy a storage system that is a ready made for ornaments. Do you think I could find this anywhere?! Anywhere?! So, I went to Plan B…
I received an email with this tip…glue styrofoam beverage cups to the bottom of the storage bin and place the small ornaments in them.
OK, I had plastic cup, and I was not going to glue them to the bin, but HEY, this is a great idea! I was able to place all the smaller ornaments into cups and wrapped and laid the larger ones on top. I am hoping that the structure of the cups will provide some extra stability and maybe there won’t be any losses this year!
