Feeling overwhelmed by the chaos of Christmas clutter? You need some serious Christmas decoration storage ideas, and we’ve got plenty to share!

All I want for Christmas is… a little organisation, right?

We know all too well the chaos of the season. We’re talking about the unforeseen snow days (not in the UK, obvs), the over-the-top but entirely excusable family gatherings, and the panic to get all your gifts wrapped before December 25th.

Add a mess of festive decor into the mix and, well, the most joyous month of the year looks a little less merry than you’d hoped. That’s why we’re here to help you get things in order – with Christmas decoration storage, ofc.

Year after year, you can count on these seasonal saviours to make Yuletide a little easier pre and post celebrating!

Christmas Decoration Storage for… the Christmas Tree

Whether you go all-out with a 10ft snow-tipped tree or keep it super low-key, a scratty old box simply will not make the cut when storing your tree. We’re so done with seeing beautiful branches stuffed into bags and boxes that are definitely not fit for purpose.

A quality (artificial) Christmas tree can last decades with a little TLC. And it all begins with proper storage – the best are made from super durable, tear-proof and waterproof material for maximum protection.

Christmas Decoration Storage for… the Baubles

If you’re guilty of haphazardly throwing your baubles into a box – or worse, a used plastic bag – you need to stop immediately.

A couple of scuffs and scrapes here and there combined with a loose sprinkling of glitter will eventually lead to replacing your entire collection. Trust us.

A storage box with individual compartments is the easiest (and most protective) way to store your ornaments. Plus, it means you can clearly see every bauble when decorating, helping you create the most Pinterest-worthy display with little effort.

TOP TIP: We always take extra care to store glass, glitter, or more delicate ornaments inside bubble wrap for maximum protection. Buying a large roll is most cost-effective (and means you can use the wrap for other things, too!), but this set of 50 small pouches makes life a little simpler.

Christmas Decoration Storage for… the Wreath

There’s always that one decor item that you have zero clue how to store, right?

Something as uniquely shaped and constructed as your wreath demands a lot of protection to keep it looking as good as the day you bought it. Your typical storage box is a total no-go.

Luckily, we’ve found some fab options specifically for your festive florals!

A lightweight bag is the best choice to keep things relatively compact, but they don’t have the structure to stop your festive display from getting squished. That’s why we’re all about the boxes – they’re a little more aesthetic, too!

Christmas Decoration Storage for… the Christmas Tree Lights

*mind = blown*

Call us unseasoned organisers, but we did not know you could buy Christmas decoration storage boxes for your string lights. This is GENIUS – no more wrapping them around an old Radio Times magazine, right? iykyk.

Even better, there are some brilliant cable tidies to keep your lights from getting into a tangled mess (no more family arguments when decorating!).

TOP TIP: You can also use string light holders to keep tinsel, beads, or garlands looking pretty, saving you from squishing them into a miscellaneous box!

Christmas Decoration Storage for… the Wrapping Essentials

Okay, we know these must-have bits and bobs don’t exactly fall under the category of “Christmas decoration storage”. Buuuut… as you’re already committed to upping your organisation game, you may as well get your wrapping essentials in order.

We’re obsessed with these savvy options. With plenty of compartments for gift tags, ribbons and bows, and a large space for paper, everything has its own home, helping to keep them in tip-top condition, too.
