Well, besides having someone else do it all for you.

If you have a really old one with a few boards missing, that’ll work just fine too!.All you’ll need to do is take it into whatever room you store your wrapping paper in, stand it up next to the wall, and you have a perfect little “bin” to hold all your rolls of wrapping paper.

And it only takes up about 5″ of space off the wall..I keep rolls of paper in one side and a big gift bag filled with other gift bags and tissue paper in the other side.You could even secure it to the wall if you wanted to, but I found it wasn’t necessary at all for me.. I’ve been looking for a good way to store my gift wrap for years and finally I’ve found something that looks good (if you love all that rustic wood, and I do), and is totally functional.

Even though the only rolls of paper I usually have on hand are for Christmas, I think they’re pretty and I like to keep them out in plain view all year so I can enjoy their cuteness..Yes, this back hall/storage area still has weird purpley paint and dark brown baseboards, but that doesn’t mean I can’t have cute storage.. And, don’t go thinking this idea is just for wrapping paper.

Just think of the possibilities!

I wouldn’t be opposed to having a whole wall of pallet storage.I also got a chance to clean up the mudroom a bit and make it feel a little more seasonally appropriate.. You’ve heard of cheap and cheerful?

I call this cheap, ugly, and cheerful.I know it’s really not something I would usually like at all, but the bright colours still make me feel a little happier when I see them.

There’s more too, but I’ll spare you!.And that’s where we’ll stop for today.
