And there’s a section all about creating nature-inspired Christmas decorations!
I’ve had a few really good old ones leaning against the garage for the last 6 months or so, but I just couldn’t stand tearing them apart.All those rusty, twisted nails?
The best thing about this little “project” (if you can call it that), is that you don’t need to take it apart at all!In fact, if there are a few boards loose from you trying to pull them out, go ahead and get a hammer and pound them back into place.If you have a really old one with a few boards missing, that’ll work just fine too!.
All you’ll need to do is take it into whatever room you store your wrapping paper in, stand it up next to the wall, and you have a perfect little “bin” to hold all your rolls of wrapping paper.And it only takes up about 5″ of space off the wall..
I keep rolls of paper in one side and a big gift bag filled with other gift bags and tissue paper in the other side.
You could even secure it to the wall if you wanted to, but I found it wasn’t necessary at all for me.. I’ve been looking for a good way to store my gift wrap for years and finally I’ve found something that looks good (if you love all that rustic wood, and I do), and is totally functional.I painted the sides in a light brown and then used a glue stick to attach some burlap to the fronts..
I trimmed all the edges in some twine.The only thing that cost me any money were the little metal “handle” things.
I splurged and bought two different packs of ten in two different sizes.So that was about $3.
