Just this past weekend, I had the privilege to go on a girls only retreat! Myself and seven other women left our husbands, kids, and other daily
responsibilities behind us and went to the beach! It was so good for the soul and exactly what each of us needed during this time of busy schedules and holiday chaos!
When we woke up on Saturday morning we did a gift exchange. The rules of the exchange was it had to be holiday related. It didn’t matter what holiday, and the price limit was somewhere around $30.00.
Being the Professional Organizer I am, I quickly jumped from Santa’s and Snowmen to how do you store these Santa’s and Snowmen! So To Think Inside the Box…. my gift contained one large clear storage container filled with one medium storage container to hold tree ornaments and one small storage container to contain ribbons, bows, etc. and a wrapping paper organizer! The gift was a hit… We were able to “steal” gifts from each other 3 times and this gift was taken, stolen and taken back from the original owner!
Sometimes instead of the traditional it is a good thing to think outside the box or in this case.. inside the box!
Happy Holidays! Happy Organizing!
The items I purchased for the gift exchange included: (You can find these items and other Holiday Storage at the TCO Holiday Center)
