They have cardboard seperators and some even have lids that lock back down then you close the case. Besides, it's fun to empty a case with the excuse that you're organizing.

They're nice because you can open the lid, take the top layer out and set it inside the lid, and then you can see all the ornaments at once very easily. Also, they're red and green. Pretty. :) We have some we got on after-Christmas sale at Target that are shallower with only two shelves.

I think this is meant to be more along the lines of "here's what to do with what you have". Dagmag: On that subject, wouldn’t it be more uncluttered not to have a tree at all?

The birds appreciate the popcorn and the chains are recyclable after xmas...just sayin'. not to be a scrooge, but wouldn’t it be more uncluttered to just decorate a tree with simple popcorn strings and paper chains?

Seems to work pretty well. I use a cardboard box with shredded wrapping paper to act as a cushion for the ornaments. Seems to work pretty well.

They stack so neatly in the closet, and it only takes two to hold all my ornaments. I also highly recommend picking them up right after Christmas since they're all on sale.
