Share
Christmas ornaments bring a festive touch to our holiday celebrations, and many hold sentimental value or represent cherished memories. Whether it's a family heirloom or a new addition from Tree Treasures "Ode to Spot" Gold Ornament – Trek-Inspired Holiday Décor, taking the time to properly store and care for your ornaments ensures they remain in excellent condition for years to come. Here, we answer some of the most frequently asked questions about maintaining your Christmas ornaments.
How should I store my ornaments to prevent damage?
When storing your ornaments, use sturdy containers and separate fragile items with bubble wrap or tissue paper. An ornament storage box with dividers is ideal to avoid movement. Additionally, label each container so you can easily find them next year. You can find a variety of ornaments with intricate designs in our Pop Culture Ornaments collection.
Are there specific care instructions for different types of ornaments?
Absolutely! Different materials require different care:
- Glass Ornaments: Handle with care and store in protective packaging. Ensure they are cleaned gently with a soft cloth.
- Decoupage Ornaments: Items like the Kurt Adler Peppa Pig™ Decoupage Ornament or the Bluey™ Decoupage Ornament should be kept away from moisture. Dust them lightly with a dry cloth if needed.
- Blow Mold Ornaments: The KURT ADLER ELVIS IN GOLD JACKET BLOW MOLD ORNAMENT is sturdy but can fade in sunlight. Store in a dark area to retain its color.
What is the best way to clean ornaments?
For most ornaments, a gentle dusting with a microfiber cloth will suffice. Avoid using water or cleaners unless specified safe by the manufacturer. For detailed cleaning instructions, you might refer to the product care guide provided with specific pieces from our Tree Treasures Exclusives: Designed to Make Your Holidays Unforgettable collection.
How can I safely display fragile or special ornaments?
When displaying fragile items such as the Kurt Adler Spongebob Squarepants™ & Patrick Decoupage Ornaments, Set of 2, place them higher on your tree or in a display case, away from rambunctious pets or curious children.
