Wreath Storage

Before the holidays hit us, there is a general feeling of uplifting optimism. We rush about to and fro with a seemingly endless supply of energy to get all the tasks on our to do lists crossed off and noted as accomplished, done and the chapter is closed. In our enthusiasm, it doesn’t seem like a chore to set up all the decorations, to get just the right tree and wreath or to shop until we drop for gifts for our friends and loved ones. We just do it and get those things done.

But what happens when the mad race to the finish line is over? What happens to the runner who has crossed the threshold of the finish line? Enthusiasm, endorphins and the incredible energy the two create is suddenly gone. Yes, you might still have a bit of a runner’s high, but the race is done. Now, it is time to clean up and go back to the usual day to day act of living. This is often how we all feel after the holidays are over and done. We are left feeling tired and without energy. We move slowly. There is no rush to take down the tree. There is no mad race to put the Christmas wreath in storage. Who cares how it is stored? It just needs to get put away. So, the wreath gets tossed in a box with some other ornaments until next year when it gets pulled out during another year’s mad race of enthusiasm for the season and crash. Add another item to your holiday busy season to do list. The Christmas wreath is dirty and covered in mouse droppings. The heavier fireplace mantle stocking holders have crushed the once fluffed out leaves. You are going to need a new Christmas wreath.

Avoid adding to next year’s to do list during your hectic mad race time of the year. Instead take advantage of storage bags, boxes or cases that are meant to hold and protect your holiday wreaths. A clear wreath storage bag can protect the wreath from dust, dirt and other damaging annoyances. The clear bag helps you easily locate and find just the wreath you needed. A wreath storage box made from polypropylene plastic can further protect your wreath not just from dust, dirt, grime and pests, but also from moisture. The wreath won’t get smashed, torn or otherwise damaged while being stored in your attic, basement or closet. Another option is a wreath case. Make it easy to transport, see and store your wreath in this case. The clear top makes it easy to spot the wreath you need for your front door, wall or mantle. The case has a built in handle to make it easy to carry it to where you are going to hang it. It also is easily stackable, so if you have several wreaths you need to store, you can store them together, saving space by stacking them. You can further save space by hanging the case on the wall. There is a handy mounting hole built into the back of the case, making it very easy to store your wreaths up and off the floor of your attic, basement or closet. You could also store your wreath in a nylon wreath bag that has an additional compartment in the middle to store lights or other holiday decorations, keeping additional items with the wreath itself. It also has handles making it easy to carry the wreath to where you need it. The bag protects just as the other wreath storage containers do.

Don’t add to your to do list next season. Store your wreath this season properly, so next season is a season with one less item on your to do list.
