The only thing that is not Christmas in that closet (I call it my attic closet) is at the bottom of the first photo, in the center there is a small nightstand that has other things in it and In the third photo, not shown under what you CAN see to the right is a large container or two of other things, like cake pans. All across the top, all on the left and all you can see on the right..... all Christmas related of some sort. That does not included dishes and stemware stored in the cabinets in the kitchen over the frig.
Every time I take it out or put it up I try to get rid of some of it, but it rarely fails that I then add something new and wonderful before next time. What's worse is that I use to live in a bigger place and had more places to display than I do now. Now.... I end up leaving a little in the boxes, even though I'd rather have it all out.
Decisions, decisions.... 😄
Haha I can never resist getting something new.. but I still manage to fit all into one paper shopping bag :p
You mean, only one paper shopping bag at a time??... or ALL of your Christmas decor will fit in one bag? If it's that latter, I don't even know what to think about that ! LOL
A lot of mine is an accumulation of years and some have sentimental attachments. I love it all, but there is some truth in my kidding around about it being more than I have the energy to deal with these days. I know I have too much (not that I ever thought there was such a thing as too much)....and who knows, maybe I will find away to whittle it down some, but it really IS hard to let go.
Hahahaha nooo
I mean ALL my Christmas decorations fit into one paper bag :D
Thats just my own ones. It does not include the stuff in boxes in my family home. There we also have very old decorations that we sometimes don't even hang on the tree, so that they don't break :p. And yeaaa a lot more stuff.
It is hard.. especially, as you say, has sentimental value.
And then we clutter more and more... :D :D
