Spiffy Christmas Storage Solutions

I know it's been a while, but believe it or not, I still keep tabs on my blog! Crazy, I know. I am back with some pretty simple builds for storing Christmas lights. I know, I know. I've done a post before for storing lights and tinsel, but I believe these ones look way cooler. xD Make these reels and never have to spend hours untangling lights and tinsel again!

Have an idea for a build? Comment and let me know!

Knex 101: Christmas Storage Ideas

Well, the time has come to take down the lights, the tree, stocking, and other Christmas decorations. The trick? Storing everything efficiently so that it doesn't take hours upon hours to untangle lights and tinsel when you bring your Christmas stuff out again in November (or whenever it is that you decorate for Christmas ;) ). My helpful Christmas storage item this year? Why, Knex of course!

It doesn't take a lot of parts, but it keeps thing so neat and tidy!

  

These are stocking holders I made from old tissue boxes, rice to weigh it down, and grey K'nex rods.

Christmas with Knex: Lighted Christmas Box

I had so much fun with today's build! It was super easy, and I think it turned out fantastic! Who says you have to pay an arm and a leg for cool Christmas decor? More to come!

The "skeleton" for my lighted gift box

It doesn't look like a gift without a bow, right?

Then I just wrapped a strand of 50 lights around it.

 It looks pretty cool!

If you have any more ideas for knex builds, please let me know!
