Goodbye Christmas, Hello New Year, with Treetopia Tree Bags!

I used to live with someone who wasn’t at all into Christmas decorations and who hassled me to take the tree down on December 26th. Pardon me, but that is just not going to happen. I LOVE MY CHRISTMAS TREE(S). If it were up to me, I’d have the trees up all year round. Unfortunately, the big tree is blocking the doggies’ access to the window they love to bark at, sooooooooo, the trees must shed their ornaments and go to sleep.

I’m lucky to be trying a Treetopia Tree Storage Bag. Normally, I just put my fake trees back in the boxes that they came in. It’s difficult to squish all their branches back together, so the boxes don’t really close back all the way, and all year, I just sort of accept that their little branches are peeking out somewhere, waiting for the next Christmas.

Tree_BagWhen Treetopia asked if I wanted to try out a storage bag, I was super excited! My big 7-foot purple tree is now all wrapped up and protected, plus, it stands UPRIGHT and is easier to store while saving more room in my garage. It does sort of look strange in my livingroom window, like, we’re hiding bodies or incubating an alien pupa, but I trust that it will all work out once Manda helps me carry it into the garage with the handy carrying straps! It looks like there’s a little bit of room left in there, so I might try storing some of my tabletop trees in there, too.

The big tree is still fully assembled inside the bag, so next year, all we have to do is peel this open like a banaynay and BOOM, our tree will be ready for its decorations again!

ALSO, Treetopia sent me a wreath storage bag! I was just going to shove it in a couple of garbage bags taped together, but this bag is way more protective and also has a convenient carrying loop.

Okay the really cool thing about the carrying/hanging loop is that it’s attached to a ring on the inside that you clip directly to your wreath frame. This means, that if you hang your wreath in the bag, it won’t sag and warp against its own weight, which is exactly what my wreath has been doing.

I honestly had no idea that storage options like this existed, so if you’ve been looking for something similar, check some of these out! Plus, Treetopia is having a big sale right now that ends January 17th!

    I kept a 2′ tree up year round, changing the decorations for each holiday, season, or special occasion. I took it down when we got our kitten, but plan to put it back up when he attacks less. I also have a crochet wreath up year round that I decorate. Fun earrings make great ornaments on it.

    Oh my gosh. I just laughed so hard at “incubating an alien pupa”
    I obvi haven’t read your (or anyone’s) blog for quite awhile. What an enjoyable morning read with coffee ❤️ I’ve been wanting to get a treetoipa tree for a year or two, and I think these storage options are fantastic. I have to laugh at how the tree looks in the storage bag, and your comments! Hahahaha! I just thought about what your garage might look like if you have all your trees in those! Hahahaha!!!! ❤️
