Create a Functional Holiday Planning Station

December 03, 2017

If your life is anything like mine, the month of December is like a never ending to-do list.

Creating a Holiday Planning Station in your home is a great way to keep the little things you need throughout the month right at your fingertips. It doesn’t require much space, just a few organizational items and a little thinking ahead.

First create a quick list of the items you might need to have easy access to throughout the season:

Stamps for holiday cards
A stash of thank you cards and envelopes that you can regularly pop in the mail before you get too far behind
Tape, ribbon, bows, bags and scissors for ongoing gift wrapping
Matches or lighters for festive candles around the home, or to light the fireplace
Several pre-prepped hostess gifts that you can grab as you walk out the door. Check out this past blog post for gift ideas!

Next, purchase a few organizational items to hold these materials and place them in a corner of your home like an office, the mudroom, a small area in your kitchen or in a cabinet. We suggest the Large Wicker Organizer Basket and the Wicker Divided Organization Basket for function and design.
