Did you hear? I’m kicking off a new series where you can get organized in 30 days! Sign up here to get started! I’m breaking it down into easy to achieve projects – many you can accomplish in 20 minutes or less.

I have a lot of fun new projects coming as I work to organize our home and prepare a fresh start for the new year. I’m kicking it off by sharing my favorite storage containers and organization supplies. 

As a huge fan of home design where function meets form, this concept applies to our storage containers and all home organization ideas. I love when a pretty storage container can add streamlined function to our home, but is still pretty enough to sit in any corner!

As always, you can find a lot of my favorite storage containers and supplies in my shop both here on my site and on Amazon. Items noted with a star are used in our home.

Christmas Storage

Wrapping Paper Baskets

I store our wrapping paper in an oversized basket. I love that it makes it accessible beyond the holiday season. It’s nestled beautifully in the corner of our office. You can also use this method in the basement or craft room.

Wrapping Paper Boxes

Of course traditional gift wrap storage is great, too! This holds up to 24 standard wrapping paper rolls and stows under a bed or on a shelf!

Wreath Storage

I have a wall of wreaths hung in our basement so I can quickly shop our home and select a wreath. If you have the space, I highly recommend it! You can use your favorite hooks.

If not, this wreath storage is really inexpensive and keeps your wreaths dust free!

Ornament Storage

Label Maker

My secret weapon to storage and organization is a label maker! It’s simple, consistent, easy-to-read and often saves us from opening multiple boxes to find something.

It’s perfect for organizing Christmas decor, storage rooms, paint and so much more!

Baskets and Bins

A wide array of baskets offer storage, that looks beautiful, too! It’s a great way to hide unsightly items like dvds and batteries, but also things like blankets and laundry!

They keep groups of items contained. We use them in just about every room! Some examples include under sink storage, in the kitchen pantry and in the linen closet.
