We are finally getting around to packing up all our Valentine crafting, decor and homemade STUFF. I’m trying to be selective about what I keep, what I toss and how to fit it all back in the one small Valentine bin I use to store the stuff. It’s not easy, deciding what kid-made valentines to keep. But I can’t possibly save them all, year after year.
I challenge myself with this one bin rule for every holiday except Christmas. Each holiday gets one bin, with the size depending on the holiday. And everything from books, wreaths, crafts and miscellaneous decor must fit inside the bin. I have a hard enough time keeping our basement organized, and this is one simple way to keep the Easter Baskets, Halloween candles and birthday party supplies from overtaking the storage spaces.
What are your tips for paring down the festive keepsakes, be it store bought or kid made?
