Darling. The original boxes are part of the joy. They bring back the memories and keep your stuff safe.
I can see that, but personally I am much happier with this storage solution. I say do what works for you and what you are happy with.
I did basically the same thing but made my own devided trays out of cardboard board boxes. One thing I did that was a huge time saver was write a short description of the ornament in the bottom of each little cubbie. And it makes it easier for the kids to help!!
While I acknowledge the nostalgia of unpacking, I definitely NEED this hack! Thx
Great idea!
And if you have commemorative ornaments you want to remember you could cut the name off the packaging and slip it into the section with the ornament.
Take all the labels out when you decorate the tree and when you put everything away sort those labels with the matching ornaments.
When those ornaments are passed along your kids, grandkids, will know what’s significant.

Great idea Jan!
I was thinking exactly the same thing!
This is a great idea and the best solution I've seen for storing holiday decor.
Thanks so much!
Brilliant!! I already have those black totes. Using the drawer organizers is something I wouldn’t have thought of. So, thank you!!
I have so many ornaments that are over 50 years old that lasted far longer than their boxes. So when the boxes no longer protect the ornament you do have to find a new packing solution and this one seems just right! Thank you for your wonderful solution. I have not found any pre- made boxes that offer so much storage and is hard sided.

Fabulous! Guess who’s heading to Walmart! Thanks for sharing this idea.
Excellent idea!!
LOL! I'm just seeing this in Jan of 2024. This year I got the same totes, at Costco, and they were $9.99 each. I bought 4! I wasn't exactly sure what I was going to do with them yet, but now I know what 1 will be used for! Thank you so much for sharing this. I absolutely LOVE this!!!
The totes at our Costco have gone up in price too. I bought some more this year for $8.99 each. Still a good deal for high quality totes. I loved using my ornament tote this year. It made decorating and undecorating the tree soooo much quicker. Thanks so much for watching Kristi!
Freakin' brilliant! Thank you!
Chantel ... This is BRILLIANT!!! I have to do this ... thank you for sharing!!!
You are so welcome!
Very clever! I am going to make one for each of my kids to give to them with the ornaments from their childhood.
This is so smart, I also saw the clutter bug video and then decided to search on here.. this is awesome
Thanks Diana! I love Cass' channel. She inspires me all the time. Thanks so much for watching and Happy New Year!
Chantel this idea is absolutely brilliant!!!!! This year I swore I was going to purge and organize my gazillion 😜bins of Christmas decorations. This is perfect!!!!! I can't wait to do this 😁 Have a wonderful Christmas!!!!!!! See you soon 🤗
Thanks Renee! I definitely need to purge all of my Christmas decorations as well! This was a great place to start. Merry Christmas to you and your family!
I have been watching videos on Christmas storage. This is a great idea! I have tried the boxes with the cardboard dividers and you hit the nail on the head in that you can’t take a level out at a time. I am going to try this out! Thanks for the great idea!
Such a great idea! Thank you for sharing.
Great idea!
Wow! That is the smartest thing I’ve seen yet for storage!!
great idea time saver putting up and taking down 😀😀😀😀😀
Oh my gosh I have been fiddling with the boxes to all of our ornaments for over 30 yrs putting them back into the original “hallmark” boxes so they wouldn’t get broke! You saved me!
Same here!! I feel so free now! 🤣
Great idea…thanks! I struggle with putting away my ornaments every year. Great solution ❤
Oh this is amazing!!!! Perfect timing
This is such a great idea! I'll be keeping the vintage ornaments I have the original packages for in those original boxes, but I also have a lot of loose older and handmade ornaments that are currently being stored in a multitude of small cardboard boxes, inside larger cardboard boxes. They're all mostly just dumped in and crowded together, without any protection. This is a good solution for that.
Absolutely! I still have a few collectible ornaments that I store in the original packages too but for all the other ones, I'm loving this tote!
I am going to definitely do this storage in my Christmas bins too. Excellent idea. Thank you so much. I have so many ornaments and boxes I'd love to reorganize and condense them.
Thank you ❤ Linda from Ontario, Canada 🇨🇦❤️
I'm so glad it did it! I think you will be too. Thanks so much for watching!
Such a great idea & cheaper than a lot of organizers
I'm a construction worker and a really handy guy around the house, but I could not find what I needed at Home Depot to solve the ornament problem. As you pointed out I hated the idea of fabric boxes for my fragile ornaments and I hated the idea of unpacking all ornaments to get to the bottom ones. I was racking my brain trying to figure out the divider problem, so I looked it up on TH-cam knowing some mom already cracked this home organizing nut, lol. Thanks A LOT for sharing your idea. It's going to make my life easier:)
You would think the storage gurus who manufacture these things would have come up with this long before now, right?! Thanks for watching and I'm glad it was helpful for you.
I've searched You tube for ideas to store ornaments...and yours is the BEST idea! Thank you!
Genius idea 🎉
I need to do this for my ribbon
Good idea! It would certainly be great for that as well!
What a great idea!!!
What a great idea! Now I know how to organize my Christmas ornaments. Thank you!
Yay! I'm so glad it was helpful! Have a Merry Christmas!
Awesome. My Christmas is still up because I am not organized. Doing this today. Thank you
What a great idea.
That's a really GREAT idea!! Thanks for sharing. Happy New Year 🎉
Clever idea!
I need to do this! I also have kept all my ornaments in the original packaging (for 40+ years) and really need to consolidate and organize them. Thank you for the inspiration!
Merry Christmas to you and your Loved ones❤🎄🎁🎅🎀🤶
You're so welcome! Thank you for watching and Merry Christmas to you and your family as well!
Love this. I would still wrap my most precious ones in paper towel pieces or tissue paper.
Love this! What a great idea!!! The only change I’ve made to my storage is replacing all the colored plastic storage bins with clear plastic so at a glance I can see what’s in the bins without opening it up.
I agree, great idea!
Love this idea.
You’re a GENIUS! I’m doing this tomorrow! I have the soft sided tote and it makes me nervous! I subbed, you’re far too clever to miss a single tip! 🍀💚
Welcome to my channel! Thank you so much for watching and subbing!
Love this idea! Thank you! I need more ornament storage.
You are a genius !!!! 👍🏼🥰❤️
I don't think I rank as genius but thank you! 😊 I will say it was definitely a good idea though. Thanks so much for watching Alice and have a Merry Christmas!
Wonderful idea! I was just getting ready to start putting all of mine back in their boxes. Thanks!
Oh my how wonderful! I love this idea. I have never seen those totes from Costco that inexpensive...but I have some in storage so when I get that stuff organized and I will have empty totes I will try this. I may need to do a couple since I have a lot of ornaments that I haven't used lately. Thank you for sharing this great idea.
You are so welcome! The totes are more expensive this year. $8.99 at my store but that's still a pretty good deal for quality totes.
Oh my goodness I love this. Thank you. Going to start collecting supplies!
Yay! I'm so glad this is helpful for you!
Omg this idea is brilliant. I wish I saw this before I put everything away. But I most definitely will be doing this next year . Thank you so much
This is an excellent idea!
I was dreading having to buy one of those fabric ornament bags because of the lack of protection in my attic. But, what you have done totally quells my fears! Not only is it more secure but it's easier to put away with the foam backing!
Great job and great tip! Have a Happy holiday season!
...and the foam core doesn't add weight to the packaging.
Thanks! I knew if I had this challenge, then other people were having it as well. I'm so glad I came up with a solution. Thanks for watching!
What a fantastic idea, you need to patent it ....lol!! Thank you for sharing this great idea!
You are so welcome! I'm glad you like it.
That’s a really awesome idea
I love this idea!!!! Thank you!
GENIUS!
Oh wow thats awesome
This is a great tutorial! I sent it to my daughter!
This is really a great idea.💕
OMG that is a great idea. Thank you for sharing this ❤ this idea
This is such a great DIY!! Thank you so much for sharing!
Brilliant! 🎉😊
BRILLIANT!
Thanks so much!
Such a great idea
Great idea. Thanks for sharing.
Good ideas. Will be trying this one.
Awesome idea. I will be looking for those drawer organizers. I have a tote I can use! Merry Christmas🎄
Thanks Julie! I found the drawer organizers in the home section at Walmart in the aisle with the clothes hangars and hampers. Merry Christmas!
Wow that's a great Christmas gift idea! Not too expensive and I sure wouldn't mind receiving something so useful. You are amazing.
Just started watching…love your scarf! John 3:16❤️ Now I will continue with your video! Thanks!
Great idea thank you for showing us.
Best storage idea I've seen! Merry Christmas
Aww, thank you! Merry Christmas to you too!
I love this idea. I’m actually trying to get my storage set for when all the decorations need to come down. You must have been reading my mind. Tfs. Merry Christmas 🎄🎅🏼
Yay! I'm glad it was perfect timing for you! Thanks for watching and have a Merry Christmas!
Thanks for sharing!
Brilliant! TFS!
Thank you! 😊
Amazing!!! Thank you for this idea!
Just a follow up, I made some for my decorations!! What a transformation! I thought I’d need 3 of those double trays, but I only needed 2, it all packed so efficiently. I also forwarded your video to my sisters who thought it was a amazing idea( for next Christmas because they were a bit ahead of me with putting their decorations away, lol). Thanks again!!
This is an awesome idea! I am definitely going to make these. Wow, this will save so much time. Thank you so much for sharing. Merry Christmas to you and your family.🎄
Thanks so much! 😊 I can't believe how much time I've wasted by putting my ornaments back in the original packages every year!
Great idea.
Now that was a great idea
Thanks!
Awesome idea. Thank you
Thank you. I have some ornament trays like that in some organizers I have. But the whole case it that same material. I never thought to just put some foam board in the bottom.
So clever!
All I can say is, "Wow!" I've been racking my brain for just this and you've created a genius solution. I've been dreading the Christmas decoration take down this year -- it normally just exhausting and messy. Thank you so much for sharing!
Glad I could help! I actually made this last year and it made things so much easier this year! I'm still loving it!
WOW! This is a game changer! Thanks for sharing this DIY!
It really is! Thanks so much for watching!
Brillant!!!
Awesome idea Chantel. I am definitely going to do this with all of my ornaments to get them organized. I just hope I can get that tote in Canada but if not I will resize for a tote that I can get. Thank you so much! 👍
Thanks! I think you should be able to find a tote that will work for you. Thanks for watching and have a Merry Christmas!
@@LovinLifesJourney Merry Christmas to you and your family!

Very clever.
