My Fast & Simple Organized Present Wrapping Closet

At this time I wished to point out you my “use what I’ve” fast & simple organized present wrapping closet.

I’ve been engaged on organizing and fixing up small areas in my residence little by little this 12 months. I’ve been sharing behind the scenes and progress in our HomeBody Gathering Place group (and these tasks will proceed much more in 2025 — come be a part of us!). Since October within the HGP I’ve shared earlier than images and progress updates in my mudroom, pantry cupboards/closet and low station! It feels nice to be making regular progress on decluttering, simplifying and beautifying areas.

This visitor room closet actually was getting uncontrolled so one thing needed to be carried out.

In a smaller residence, you’ll be able to’t afford to lose any house to muddle or disorganization, particularly a a lot wanted closet.

My dream and eventual purpose was to wallpaper this closet and repaint the dresser, however I made a decision in an effort to rapidly get some sense of group and performance earlier than Christmas, I would go away the extra inventive or time consuming concepts for an additional season! My purpose was to declutter and use what I’ve quite than get sidetracked on any grand concepts.

I lastly acquired a whole lot of the random stuff out that had piled up there (due to the motivation of our HGP Bag A Day problem which we held this fall. We’ll be doing one other group problem and concentrate on simplifying our houses within the HGP in January, so I’ll be working one other closet or room then!).

In the event you might use a dose of weekly Residence Remedy to encourage you to motion within the new 12 months, come be a part of us.

As soon as the muddle was out, I began to consider how I might higher use this house.

When a closet or cupboard has a definite operate or organizational system, it gained’t be as prone to get cluttered once more. I had simply purchased some new present wrap so I used to be impressed to concentrate on utilizing this closet principally present wrapping and packing provides. But additionally determined to make use of the higher shelf for visitor sheets (I had purchased these containers a 12 months or two in the past, they work nice for organizing our lesser used visitor sheets) in addition to hung some out of season clothes to at least one facet.

Lately I shared my over the door organizer on this publish: 10 Organizers We Use in Our Residence. I purchased this for a distinct function however now I really like the organizer in right here as it could actually maintain the entire small present wrapping gadgets that had beforehand stuffed up one of many drawers on this dresser.

I’ll most likely manage the cubbies of this organizer much more, nevertheless it was easy to simply toss gadgets in and immediately have an empty drawer to make use of!

This can be a Restoration {Hardware} dresser that was right here in the home once we moved in. It’s good high quality and I by no means wish to let a dresser go to waste so we moved it within the closet to make finest use of house.

Now it’s the proper spot for present wrapping and the drawers are a helpful place for rolls of present wrap, small packing containers and luggage, and a spot to stash presents, too.

Then I acquired an thought for what to do with the rolls of ribbon we’ll use after I wrap Christmas presents this 12 months. A few of them are within the door organizer, however I believed it will be enjoyable to maintain among the new vacation ribbon I acquired from Rifle Paper Co. separate to make use of for Christmas.

Since I solely wished to make use of what I needed to manage this closet, I discovered I had an additional pressure curtain rod to make use of for the Christmas ribbon. The stress rod match completely on one facet of the closet. Now this ribbon is organized and really handy to be used on this season. Plus there’s much more room on the rod so I can add extra ribbon!

By the way in which, the trick to creating ribbon purposeful on a rod like that is taping the sting of the ribbon when not in use. In any other case it would unroll and land on the ground :).

Our closet doesn’t have a wired in mild so for now I used this set of two rechargeable lamps (on Black Friday sale proper now!).

I purchased these earlier this 12 months and have already discovered so many locations for them round the home, however I made a decision the lamps on this spot will make present wrapping additional cozy in these darkish evenings!

I’ve had the linen boards since my navy workplace two houses in the past.

I beloved that workplace a lot, I believe I’d wish to paint this entire room navy in honor of it. 🙂

The printable present tags and Hygge artwork on the linen boards (which I purchased at HomeGoods years in the past) are free presents for members of HomeBody Gathering Place! In case you are an HGP member, you’ll find them in your dashboard.

I acquired all of those cute wrapping provides from Rifle this 12 months … together with the playing cards, present wrap, ribbon and so forth! I really like all of them!

Now that I’ve a comfy spot to be, I can’t wait to make a scorching drink, activate some tunes and wrap presents!
