RUBBERMAID Gift Wrap Organizer and Collapsible Cube Review


I love the holidays!  I love shopping for the perfect present for everyone on my list.  I even love wrapping those presents. Well, after I manage to find the wrapping paper which is usually scattered throughout the closets in our house.  I did try a plastic tub with the intention of shoving it under the bed, but of course it was just a little too tall. 

I was elated when I received two of Rubbermaid's sensible holiday organizing items for review on my blog. 

According to the National Retail Federation, the average consumer spends $187 towards holiday decorations, greeting cards and postage, candy and food, and other items.  To get the most out of these investments, Rubbermaid holiday storage products provide as easy way to preserve those decorations for years to come.  With items designed to store wreaths, trees, ornaments, gift wrap and bags, and ribbons and bows, you won’t have to worry about items getting damaged and torn from year to year, making every holiday as festive as the last.

I received these two products below for review:

40" GIFT WRAP ORGANIZER:


Rubbermaid Holiday storage review

40” Low Profile Wrapping
·         Holds 12 rolls or 30-inch or 40-inch paper
·         Vinyl pockets hold bows, tissue paper, scissors and tape
·         Use for storing decorations—garland, ornaments and lights


How much do I love this?  Oh let me count the ways.  I can FINALLY keep all of my wrapping items together in one place.  No more searching for bows somewhere under the bed in a large ziploc bag.  No longer will I look through the kitchen drawers to find the scissors and tape that inevitably someone has removed and hasn't put back.  This is mine all mine.  I can put everything I need in this handy organizer.  In addition to rolls, there is a place for flat wrapping paper and gift bags, and a pouch for scissors, pens, gift tags, tape and more.  The Rubbermaid Gift Wrap Organizermy  will make life so much easier when I have oodles of gifts to wrap.  OH - AND since it is not hard plastic, I can actually fit it under the bed, or prop it up neatly in a closet!

10" COLLAPSIBLE CUBE:

Rubbermaid Review

10” Collapsible Cube
·         Holds 24 ornaments
·         Adjustable dividers
·         Velcro lid closure
·         Folds down for convenient storage

The Collapsible Cube from Rubbermaid is another  product that I don't ever want to live without.  My family and I host ornament exchange parties at our house every holiday season, and I have collected an amazing assortment of special ornaments, figurines, etc..  In addition to those I have First Christmas and Our New Home ornaments, as well as several others that have special meaning to me.  I would be devastated if any of these were lost or broken.  The Collapsible Cube can hold up to 24 ornaments, and it is lightweight and secure.  As the name implies, when not in use it can be folded up and stored away until after the holidays.

I am so impressed with both of these products. In addition to these two items, Rubbermaid has several other items that will help make your life just a little easier.











These products, along with other Rubbermaid products are available at Walmart and Target stores.  Keep your eye out for them!  Make sure you check out the Rubbermaid blog for some super helpful organizational tips, and other wonderful ideas too!

Oh, my mum would so LOVE that thing! We have so much gift wrap and miscellaneous around that it's ridiculous.
Great review!

I totally need to get every one of those! Do you realize how much gift wrap gets thrown away because I don't have a storage container for it?? When Christmas rolls around, I look for the gift wrap, and it's destroyed!

I can't think of anyone who could not benefit from that. Self included. Can you tell the mister about this one? Please?

I love the one for wrapping paper!

I really need that wrapping paper box. If I get hit in the head with one more falling paper roll, I'm gonna start wrapping things in newspaper. Which isn't really a bad idea, is it? Cheap, anyway...

I reallyu like the one for wrapping paper!! The one I have is tall and annoying, it is hard to store, I finally found a place in my linen closet, but it takes up so much space and has no top. This one is GREAT!!
Thanks for this fantastic review... I'm gonna ask Santa for one!
