IKEA's Under-The-Bed Storage Solution Is Perfect For Organizing Seasonal Decor
Whether you are ready for the holidays to be over or not, many people start dismantling their seasonal decor as soon as the new year passes. One type of seasonal decor that can quickly get out of hand and be notoriously difficult to organize is wrapping supplies. Between rolls of wrapping paper, spools or ribbons, gift tape, and bows, it can be overwhelming to keep everything in a consolidated and easy-to-access space where it will be safe until the coming holiday season. One TikTok creator, however, has the perfect under-the-bed storage solution for all the wrapping paper rolls still lying around, and it's highly affordable.
TikTok user @wiebkelea showcases on their channel how they utilize the IKEA SKUBB to store their wrapping supplies in one, nicely-organized space. The organizer is easy to set up and comes with a number of compartments, as well as innovative features like velcro straps to keep wrapping paper from rolling around. There's a space at the end of the wrapping paper section that is perfect for holding gift tags, structured bows, or gift-wrapping tape, and two mesh zipper pockets that can securely hold spools of ribbons. Followers of this TikTok account love the idea of the SKUBB, with one stating, "ok this is seriously genius! My wrapping paper rolls are never in as good of condition." Once filled, the entire container zips up and can be placed under a bed for even more compact storage. The SKUBB also has a handle on one long and one short side, so you can retrieve the container if it's stashed far under the bed.
What customers say about the SKUBB
If you're interested in purchasing one for yourself, the SKUBB is available at IKEA for $12.99 and comes in a single dark gray color, with the container measuring 35 x 12 x 6 inches. The SKUBB is highly reviewed, as far as storage solutions go, with a current 4.7-star rating, and no reviews under three stars. Customers praise it for its appearance, as well as its value for money and its performance. One customer who left a 5-star review writes, "What a relief to have a dedicated place for all the gift wrap, bags, bows, tape, scissors, and tissue paper. It also fits in a small space and has velcro to keep the rolls of paper from coming unrolled and getting all crumpled. I love it."
Other customers who have purchased the SKUBB also say that even if you choose to not use it for wrapping paper, it can still provide useful storage for other items. Depending on the scale of your holiday decorations, you could easily purchase a SKUBB to hold wreaths, or wound-up garlands, holiday lights, or other seasonal decor, which can be smashed or misshapen when placed in containers that are too small or rigid. If you are storing the SKUBB under a bed, remember to pull it out periodically and vacuum under and around it, or you will risk it trapping dust. Despite being simple in its design, the SKUBB offers potentially unparalleled performance when it comes to storing seasonal wrapping and decorations.
