I’m back up in the attic to remove a few items before the holiday season begins.
Last year’s Christmas boxes in the laundry. The attic stairs are to the left of the red box.
We keep all of our Christmas decorations in the attic to the left of the stairs. During the year they sometimes get moved around and trapped behind other boxes.
These items were hampering access to Christmas decorations.
I decided to try and free them so they’ll be easier to access when we want to use them NEXT MONTH.
The items in the red basket and the metal pail are plumbing repair items along with a drain snake, plunger, and liquid drain cleaner. Now all stored together.
I tucked our plumbing bucket full of tools and materials conveniently at the top of the steps under the opposite eaves from the holiday supplies.
Plumbing bucket on the attic steps is full of tools often needed at a moment’s notice.
I don’t want to have to search for the plumbing tools when a plumbing problem occurs.
This 2-tube fluorescent light might end up in the greenhouse or the shed.
Then I found a fluorescent light that I used to use for starting seedlings. Haven’t used it for decades. Time to go.
I also discovered a microscope (visible in the plumbing photo above) and other high end toys that I’ll just list on Facebook Marketplace as I have been doing for the past few months.
Everything Christmas is in easy reach in the attic.
The Christmas decorations are now easy to access and ready for holiday spiffery. I’m sure I can downsize this collection (I had a Decor Swap last year) but I’ll be content for now with just making it readily available.
