Save that wrapping paper and create an ornament storage box to keep your tree decorations safe until next year. You'll need an empty wine or liquor box with sturdy cardboard dividers. I got this one near the front door of the liquor store.

Mix about one part water to one part white craft glue, or any glue that dries clear.

Brush the box with glue one section at a time. Then place a torn piece of used wrapping paper on the box. Brush over the paper with glue before moving on to the next section. Work your way around the entire box, except for the bottom.

I used the front of a Christmas card to create this label and glued it onto the completed box.


Keep all your little one's ornaments safe in a sturdy and festive box that should last for years to come. For extra durability, you can give the whole box a coat of clear paint sealant which can be purchased at a local home repair store.
You can also coat other boxes and lids to make re-usable gift boxes for next year.
Reminds me of our days making the prayer box back in the day! :)
