Wedding Woes

help me shop


I am disgusted with my gift wrap storage. A lot of the stuff I find online seems to think people generally have a whole room or wall they can dedicate to this.  I have one small closet. Like, coat-closet sized.

This would be perfect

But I really don't think I can justify $200.  I found a similar Elfa one at The container store for *only* $193.

Anyone seen anything similar?  Right now, i have this (http://bit.ly/gWhsew), and it is just not cutting it.

    I keep my rolls in a container like you have now.  For flat wrap, bows, ribbon and other things I have this:

    you guys are way too organized. I have a giant plastic bag for wrapping paper, ribbon goes in the cupboard that is part of the table we keep our keys on.

    Our wrapping paper is propped up in a corner in the guest bedroom. There's a bag of bows on the bed. We barely have any that's not Christmas paper, either.

    That's nice, and much cheaper than Candy Spelling's gift wrapping room.

    Huh, I have a roll of white paper and two bins of ribbons.  One bin is Christmas ribbon and one is generic.  I have one large gift bag that I shove all of the other gift bags we get into.

    Wow, that's organized.

    I don't even have giftwrap in the house anymore (we just used up the last of the Xmas wrap).  We just have a large box of gift bags for most occasions hoarded from other occasions (baby showers, wedding, birthday, Xmas, etc.)
