Christmas...Halloween...Easter...all holidays -- where do you store your decorations during the off season? Do you have them all in boxes? Do you store them in your basement, attic, garage, shed, or a closet?

We keep our Christmas tree, decorations, and HO scale train that we set up around the tree stored in our attic. I don't have tons of decorations for other holidays. The few that I do have are stored in containers and kept in a closet in the house.

I don't decorate for anything except for Christmas. I have all our decorations stored in large plastic bins. Luckily we have a lot of basement storage, so it all goes down there. Each bin is labeled, so I know exactly what is in each bin.

I like decorating for Halloween (my ds loves it) and LOVE decorating for Christmas.
We have three Christmas trees (I bought them all on the after Christmas day sale:O)
and I keep everything in plastic storage boxes. We don't have a basement, so the garage is the next best thing!

We have rubbermaid totes for everything and store them in the basement. Actually in our basement there are some beam type things that hang in one corner and my husband put wood across them so the totes would fit up there and be off the ground and out of the way.
