Setting Up A Wrapping Station
If you have some extra space in your home, setting up a permanent wrapping station is a great idea. A permanent wrapping station is wonderful for someone who enjoys giving a lot of gifts throughout the year. Wrapping stations can be set up at old desks or countertops located in a basement, utility room, or any other out-of-the-way corner of your home. Here’s an example of a permanent wrapping station set up in a basement craft room:
Here are a few ideas you might want to incorporate into your own wrapping station:
Use a horizontal paper towel holder to hang spools of ribbons for easy access
Purchase a set of clear plastic storage drawers, like the ones shown in the picture, and then separate your bows and ribbons by color so you can find what you need quickly.
Get a tall laundry basket or hamper and store rolls of wrapping paper on end inside. Keep the basket right next to your desk or countertop for easy access.
Set up small bins, baskets, or buckets on the top of the desk or counter for storing items you'll need close by such as scissors, ribbon crimping tools, cards, tape, and glue.
If you don’t have room in your home to set up a permanent wrapping station (and most of us don't!), just create your own Wrapping Supply Hamper, as shown below:
