Christmas Ornament Storage Ideas to Protect Your Keepsakes

Personalized photo ornaments hold memories, so storing them well means they last for decades. Here are simple ways to keep your keepsakes safe between holidays.

Best ways to store ornaments

• Wrap each one. Use acid free tissue or soft cloth to protect printed photos and acrylic surfaces from scratches.
• Use compartment boxes. Divided storage keeps ornaments from knocking together.
• Cool and dry. Avoid attics and garages with big temperature swings, which can fade prints over time.
• Label by year. If you collect a personalized ornament each year, label boxes so the collection stays in order.

Caring for photo and acrylic ornaments

Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. Skip harsh cleaners that can dull acrylic or lift a printed photo.
