Gifts can be a
pleasure to give but not much fun to wrap when you can't find what
you need in the mess of ribbons, bows, and wrapping paper stuffed
somewhere in your home. Here's one way to wrap your arms
around the problem.
In our first
house, it worked well to store gift wrap in a
wheeled storage container that rolled
under the bed in our guest room. After moving to Illinois, gift wrap
fit better in the guest room dresser where there was a place for
bows, folded gift wrap, gift bags and tissue paper.

The only piece
of the gift wrap puzzle that remained unsolved was
what to do with rolls of wrapping paper. They lay in a pile in our
guest room closet until I found an organizer to contain them (see
photos that follow).

The
container pictured in the above photo is the
Wrap N' Craft container by Rubbermaid. My only problem with this
product is that it doesn't store the longer rolls of paper. The
Iris Gift Wrap Organizer is 10" taller and, according to one
reviewer on Amazon.com,
fits 14" rolls with room to spare. To view this and other
