I love a good organization system -- it helps me feel happy and relaxed.
Oddly, I didn't have an organization system for our Christmas ornaments!
I'm not sure why it took me so long to apply an organization system to my Christmas ornaments. Maybe it's because it only impacts me twice yearly -- when I take them out and when I put them away. At any rate, I'm SO glad I finally did!
Now, before I tell you all about this Christmas ornament organizer, I need to say that the cranberry-colored organizer that I'm linking to in this post isn't the exact one that I own. I own the green one pictured below. Unfortunately, the one that I own is not available on Amazon anymore. However, I picked out one that is very similar, so that you can still have the benefits of this type of organizer in your own home!
Ok! Let's discuss this Christmas ornament organizer now!
// Things I love about this Christmas ornament organizer:
1. It keeps my ornaments organized!!! -- Yes, this is obvious and implied, but I still think it's worth mentioning. Instead of just having all of my Christmas ornaments in a box, it's really nice to have them in this storage organizer where there are little compartments -- each ornament gets its own spot!
2. It seems sturdy! -- Now, I haven't put this ornament organizer through rigorous testing or anything, but for an ornament storage item that comes out twice yearly -- once to take the ornaments out and another time to put them away -- it is holding up well. Granted, it sits on a shelf the other 363 days of the year, but this being said, it still seems like a sturdy (or sturdy enough) product.
3. Space for a label -- Even though I don't use this feature yet, I like that there's a spot for me to put a label to say what type of ornaments are in the organizer -- this is useful because I do actually own two of these organizers.
4. See-inside window -- I also like that there's a window on the top of the ornament organizer so that I can see inside. Is this really necessary? Maybe yes, maybe no. But, I think it's a nice touch!
5. Good zipper -- As far as I can tell, the zipper seems to be good quality. Now, again, I only use this item twice each year. However, I really don't enjoy when I run into a product with a crummy zipper. This does not seem to be the case with this product. And for that, I am grateful!
6. The color -- I do enjoy the green color of the one I own -- it's festive! And, honestly, I REALLY like the cranberry colored one that I link to in this post (that I don't own -- again, when I created this blog post, Amazon was no longer selling the original one that I purchased -- bummer!)
// Things I don't love about this Christmas ornament organizer:
1. Flimsy partitions -- I really like this product. So, I'm reaching for something that I don't like about it. I guess I could say that the interior partitions that make the little spaces for the ornaments aren't as strong as I'd like.
This being said, they get the job done, and as I've mentioned, this is a low-use product for me. So, the partitions hold up just fine and do their job, but if I were the creator of this product looking to improve it, I suppose the strength/durability of the partitions would be something I might improve.
2. Nothing else? -- Usually, I find at least a couple things that I don't like about a product that I tell you about here. I mean, I guess I don't love that my original one is no longer available, but other than that (and what I listed in point #1), that's it!
Okie doke! That's all for this one! If you decide to give this ornament organizer a try, I hope it helps make things a little tidier and a little easier for you at Christmastime!
