Holiday life hacks

Hey guys, it's Erika! Yes, this is going to be the first Holiday post this year. This might be a little early for some people but I wanted to be in advance. All of these will keep your house clean and organized even if you're lazy.

#1 
You know when Christmas is over and you have to take down all the decorations so you just throw them in a box for next year but then the next year all your lights are tangled up and it takes hours for them to actually look like Christmas lights again, here's the solution; wrap your lights around a hanger and they won't get tangled.



#2

Everyone knows that at the end of a Christmas party you usually can't see the floor anymore because there's wrapping paper everywhere. So next time, wrap a cardboard box and place it somewhere in the room. This will act as your garbage for the wrapping paper without looking so ugly.








#3
For this one, you will need old toilet paper rolls and rolls of wrapping paper. Cut the toilet paper so you can fit it on the wrapping paper, this way your wrapping paper won't get damaged.









#4
Again with wrapping paper, to keep them all organized, place them in an empty wine crate to keep them from getting ripped or lost.











#5
To continue with the organization tips, if you have small garlands that look like the one on the picture, place them in a plastic water bottle so they will never get tangled again.










#6
If you are going to be decorating cookies at the Christmas party, you might want to consider putting the frosting in condiment bottles. Your cookies will look amazing without making a mess.




#7
If you have a fake Christmas tree, you probably know the struggle of having a really empty looking tree. By adding green garlands in your Christmas tree decorations, you will make it look fuller and more natural.





#8
This last one is if you are really lazy and you don't feel like decorating your Christmas tree every year. When the holidays are over, wrap your tree with saran wrap and keep it in storage for next year, then repeat the same thing every time. But make sure you have a fake tree or else it won't go well.
