But I get my old spools from Home Depot. They throw them out, so I collect them before they put them in the trash. My home depot gives them to me for free. I just have to figure out a cheap way to wind or unwind a wooden and plastic electrical and cable spools.This is my first year with a mega tree. So I have yet to figure out how to store lights. I have been thinking about this method:http://www.holidaystoragesolutions.com/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miaskiewicz christian Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 I put my lights in plastic bin bags (yellow ones) so that I can write on it what it is and where it's supposed to go.I built many shelves in my basement to store everything.
