Storing and Organising wrapping paper

I always make sure that I purchase rolls of wrapping paper rather than sheets as they work out much less expensive.  I also tent to stock up when places have it on offer and you can guarantee that I have a large number on the go at one.  

Having more than one roll means that I need to find a good and inexpensive way to store and organise my wrapping paper.

I wanted to try and use things that I already had round the house so came up the this solution.



I reused a £0.99 plastic bag wall store that we have purchased from Ikea and then used toilet rolls, cut down one side to wrap round the open rolls.


You could also use a nice decorative bin if you have one spare or even an umbrella stand.

    such a simple idea. Mine get put in a drawer where they get torn and wrinkled and thrown away the following year!

Dumping the tumble dryer and Ecoforce giveaway

We have a tumble dryer, but it broke before christmas and we  couldn't afford to get it repaired, so I have been managing with an old fashioned wooden clothes rail and hanging bedding over the doors to dry, This last would of weeks however, I have been hanging the washing outside and it has been drying much quicker and with less creases, so I am going to take the plunge and instead of getting the dryer replaced I am going to give it away. Ecoforce heard me on twitter bemoaning the fact that I was chasing laundry round the garden as my pegs were not working and very kindly sent me some of their Ecoforce pegs to try and they have been fab.
