The Furnace Room is full of storage boxes. The storage boxes are full of stuff. We tackled our first box of stuff: The Wrapping Paper Box.

You know all those nice little gift bags we use to give birthday presents, Christmas gifts, anniversary presents, graduation gifts, Valentine's, Easter, etc? We've amassed quite a collection. We save the bags we get to use when we give gifts. As you can see from the photo, the box is over stuffed.  Quite often we run down to the box, grab a bag and a handful of tissue as we are heading out to whatever event we are attending with a gift. The contents get muddled and the lid is rarely replaced. When we get gifts we simply stuff them in the box.

Well, as part of our cleanup of the Furnace Room, we tackled the gift box. Badly crumpled and torn bags and ripped tissue was sent to the recycling bin. The good bags were sorted by size and neatly stacked in the Wrapping Box. The tissue was ironed, folded, sorted by color and put in a clear shoebox inside the Wrapping Box! The lid fits.  All is well!
