Storing Your Christmas Paper Crafts

To ensure your Christmas paper crafts last for years, proper storage is essential. Here are my top tips:

  • Keep Away from Sunlight: Prolonged exposure can fade the colors of the paper.
  • Use Plastic Storage: Place the boxes in a plastic container to prevent bending or creasing.
  • Avoid Moisture: Store in a dry, cool area to prevent damage.
  • Wrap in Tissue Paper: Protect delicate parts with tissue paper before stacking.

Happy crafting!
