Every year I give ~20 boxes of home-canned goods to lucky recipients. In order to save time & money, I decided to order wrapping supplies in bulk. Thus I have heavy stacks of white, green and red tissue paper.

How do commercial gift wrap services store their tissue paper? I’d pay some money to get a system that takes less space and is easier to use. They’ve been stacked on a desk, but that takes a lot of space and it’s cumbersome to remove sheets from the colors that aren’t on top.

I found plenty of solutions for commercial-sized **rolls** of wrapping paper, but tissue paper comes in stacks of sheets.

How big are the sheets?

The probably just come in boxes and stay stacked in the backroom on a shelf or the floor in the boxes they came in.

If they’re just long sheets of flat tissue paper, couldn’t you just drape them over some hangers?
