16. Use paper towels or wrapping paper for garland

The wreath tends to get tangled when you throw it into a box filled with your decorations. A very easy way to store and disassemble these chains is to wrap them around a roll of paper towels. Cut a hole into the cardboard at each end of the turn to put either end of the wreath, so it stays in place.

If you have multiple beaded garlands, you may want to keep them all together in the shoebox or another container you're reusing after Christmas. Only be conscious you may need to save your scrolls in November and December if you wish to prepare for this project. If you're cooking and cleaning to get ready for the vacation, it might be easier than you think.
