How to Store Artificial Wreaths and Garlands Without Losing Their Charm
At the end of the Christmas season, it becomes the time to start storing your Christmas décor so that it is ready for the next year. For many people, this is a chore. And for good reason! If you store items properly, you are going to get a longer life out of these items. However, if you were to not store these right you may find yourself buying new each year, which is something that no one wants to do! For those who use artificial wreaths and garlands, we have tons of tips that can help you with storing these so that you can get a great life out of these items.
The Ins and Outs of Properly Storing Your Artificial Wreaths and Garlands
When it comes to artificial wreaths and garlands, the main thing you have to worry about is these items getting wet. Thus, you are going to want to store these in containers that are going to ensure they remain dry until the next holiday season. We suggest storing these items in plastic containers. However, many people find putting artificial wreaths and garlands in plastic bags and hanging these until the next year is just as effective.
Be sure that you avoid the garland getting tangled by wrapping these or tying this together to ensure that when you pull it out next year, it is ready to go. Many people wrap the garland around empty paper towel rolls to have something that helps keep the shape throughout the year while in storage.
Most importantly, store these in an area that is not going to see water or extreme temperature changes to avoid these items becoming damaged. A closet is a great place, or the basement, as long as there is no chance of water getting to these items. Find what works for you, and remember to take your time when storing these so that you can do this properly.
