Whose list this is

Donald K. Holcomb is a byline for one man, who chose the pen name and decides which crafts and seasonal ideas run here, then edits each post. He works as neither an event planner nor a professional decorator. Dried orange slices, paper stars and pinecones catch fire quickly, so hang them well away from candles and the fireplace.

Store each season's decor in its own labeled bin.

A bin per holiday, with lights coiled and fragile pieces wrapped, means next year's setup starts with opening one lid instead of searching the closet.
