December Blog: Smart Storage Solutions for the Holiday Season
December is the season of twinkle lights, cozy décor, and, if we’re honest, a few extra piles of stuff. Between gifts, guests, and garland, it’s easy for your home to feel more crowded than festive. That’s where the right storage products make all the difference.


Here are some of our favorite products that are all about making the most of your space and keeping your holiday décor protected and easy to find:
Metal shelving helps you use vertical space efficiently. Whether it’s a basement, garage, or closet, adding shelves instantly multiplies your storage capacity.
Clear totes with locking handles are perfect for keeping seasonal items organized and secure. You can easily see what’s inside and safely get them down from a high shelf without worrying about the lid popping off.
Large reusable storage bags are great for linens, bedding, or bulky items you move frequently. They’re lightweight, durable, and simple to carry.

When it’s time to pack up the holidays, don’t forget these festive helpers:
Clear wreath bags that can be hung, keeping greenery full and dust-free.
Ornament storage boxes with dividers to protect delicate pieces.
And our favorite—a Christmas tree bag that hides under your tree skirt all season and then zips up and folds over the tree when the holidays are done.
While your putting away your holiday decor, take a few minutes to maintain your storage space. Here is a list of maintenance tips to help you stay organized after the decorations come down.

And over on social media, our team is sharing a quick technique we love: using rechargeable wireless light bulbs in spots where plugging in a lamp isn’t convenient. They’re perfect for closets, pantries, or any area that needs a little extra light.

Simple, livable solutions are what we’re all about, especially during the busiest season of the year.
