I am trying to declutter my house but just cant think where is a reasonable place to store wrapping paper / present related stuff. Looking for inspiration! Thanks.

I get all excited when I look in TDOC Davros!!! It has special xmas mugs for each of us, a mince pie plate, a star shaped nibbles dish, robin candles plus all xmas wrapping. As you can imagine, it my favourite drawer in the house.

As of yesterday in the recycling bin. We have recently done an attic clearout and I found tons of wrapping paper, bags and cards and I give cash gifts or vouchers to people and do not write cards so got all of them and put them out for recycling this week.

Christmas stuff in the garage near all the christmas decs. Cards in dining room sideboard and wrapping paper in my wardrobe (too long to fit in sideboard).

Rolls of wrapping paper behind the sofa. Gift bags in the garage. Other wrapping paraphernalia in a box in a Kallax unit.

I have one roll of birthday paper (which says HAPPY BIRTHDAY on it), a roll of brown wrapping paper and two Christmas rolls, one of which is tartan so does for anniversaries etc. They live in a drawer of our hallway sécretaire/china cabinet.
Scissors, sellotape dispenser and generic notelets are in the cubbies. Butcher’s string on a wooden bobbin.
I haven’t sent a Christmas card for at least 10 years.

Oops 😬 forgot all about this! Temped by the ikea box but also thinking I might just switch completely to gift bags. Thanks for ideas everyone!

I have a large purpose made bag that I store at the back of my wardrobe.
Works for me. HTH
