If you start Christmas shopping now...

Where he heck do you store all of the presents??!
Granted my house is full full full as my decluttering has been postponed due to pregnancy sickness but I still have no idea where I am to hide everything?

I am usually a last minute December rush/online orderer but this year as DS is going to be 3 and more aware of Santa, I want to be organised and get the run up to Xmas sorted in advance too so that we can make the most of the Christmas season!

I keep mine in the loft in those huge recycled laundry bags from home bargains! I do store some in the spare rooms wardrobe so if I need an urgent present there are a few in there.

A wardrobe in the spare room.

Mine are in the bedding box but it's full, not sure where to put any others as we have no loft and no more storage space.

I hide them all over the place haha - under my bed, in any drawer space in my room, a spare shelf in the airing cupboard.... anything that doesn't fit in those places tends to be in a big box in the corner of my room! Somehow the kids have never gone looking or it would be very very easy for them!!!

All over the place, loft, garden shed, backs of my drawers, under beds. Often in plain sight, but in boxes/carrier bags that look uninteresting. They've never really gone looking (age 9 and 11).

Box on the top of the wardrobe

In a box in my wardrobe and the drawers under my bed.

In our bedroom next to the altar.

My wardrobe, airing cupboard and in the massive boxes amazon send out under my bed.

My office has a bunk bed in it which is covered with spare bedding etc. what no one knows however is that underneath that is all the goodies!! I have emergency chocolate and alcohol in there too for when it all becomes too much

Usually in the attic. But it's getting cleared out as its getting turned into a useable room so now I'm having to hide stuff in every available nook and cranny!

I've actually run out of space so will need to ban myself from bargain hunting for the next few weeks.

attic and started in January

At a relative or friends house!

I have gifts for my parents, siblings, their children, MIL and her sister. They are all stored in one envelope on a shelf. :)

I get them panto tickets every year and we have a grand outing together. It's a family tradition. I spring for ice creams on the night too.

charley thats a lovely gift and panto is so expensive too.

I keep the DDs' gifts in the bottom of my wardrobe. In a bag-for-life canvas Christmas bag, one each. They have NEVER peeked or searched out their gifts.

We rent a storage unit. Put everything in there in labelled boxes as I start Xmas shopping in August then in November do a box at a time and all the cards and put it back in storage till Xmas
Works really well and I always feel very organised !

In suitcases under our bed!!

I wrap as I go then store in large suitcases.

Oh lord! We only have a small house and no spare room and the loft is crammed of baby stuff, never knew children take up so much room!
Im guessing I am going to have to get a move on decluttering under the bed and our wardrobe! Give me strength!

At the moment they're in boxes on top of a cupboard in the kitchen as I've been shoving them up there as parcels arrive. When I'm properly organised they'll be in the big cupboard in the bathroom as usual.

In giant cardboard boxes in my untidy bedroom....and some in the cupboard under the stairs....

Waitingimpatient, that IS organised! Bloody hell!
Our presents are all in the loft, in Tesco carrier bags, just next to the hatch opening so I can grab the bags without having to step off the ladder.

Loft or garage.

A cupboard in the eaves in my bedroom is used as a holding station, when there is a decent amount then they go up to the attic. I keep a list of everything that goes up there to make sure it comes down!

My only problem is that my DCs sometimes use the cupboard to play in so I have to tie it shut with a dressing gown cord once the presents start coming in. I'm sure the DCs will work out soon that sometimes I let them play in there and sometimes I don't.
