If you were a box of Christmas tat, where would you be hiding?

Moved house earlier this year and I can't find our Christmas wreath frame, small box of ribbons and other Christmas tat anywhere.

I've looked all in the attic, under the bed, in every single cupboard, in the wardrobes etc. and nothing Angry

I wouldn't have thrown them away as I try my very best not to throw away non-recyclable plastic (not a stealth brag!).

The only place I haven't checked is the garden shed but I practically lived there over the summer and think I'd remember if I'd seen them there.

Garage?
Under the stairs?

Or you packed them in a different box for the move and you are looking for the old box they were in so don’t recognise it when you are looking at it?

In suitcases?

I'm glad you ask. I would be stuffed in the side of the airing cupboard.

Mine was just kicking around in plain sight under a load of paperwork. Basically I’d gone an entire year without managing to put all the Christmas stuff away. 😬

If I were tat, I would do what our old Christmas tree did - hide in the garage, perched on the rafters but on top of a flattened cardboard box.

Missing for years.

I gave away a large box of christmas tat. Its now gone missing. No I have not still got it. Its disappeared into thin air. But likely place for yours in the garage or garden shed or loft. Or chucked out by mistake.

On top of the wardrobe?

Under the bed in the spare room. I've just found a box of 'tat for re-gifting'.

Airing cupboard

In the small loft that was built in a two storey house extension that was subsequently boarded up when we extended the bathroom into the spare room 🙃🙃🙃🙃

With that ironing board that someone else lost?

It's run off with my marbles, my get up and go and my plot....

midlifecrash · 19/12/2021 18:40

In one of the places you looked but with shoes or folders on top of it

In the attic of your old house, scared and lonely. Waiting for you, but you never come. 😢
