Organize holiday cards, lights and more with these expert-picked Target finds

As Lam notes, there's nothing worse than opening up last year's box of Christmas tree lights only to find them in a tangled mess. Enter: this light organizer, which makes it easy to store your lights and extension cords while preventing them from breakage. It includes a bag, three spools for wrapping your wires and a hook, so you can hang the reel on your ladder or roof gutter while you put your lights up.

According to Lam, this storage bag is the best way to keep your ornaments protected year after year. The clear top allows you to see what's inside, which makes sorting through last year's ornaments simple. On the inside, there are two layers of organizational trays -- both of which have 24 slots lined in acid-free fabric that prevents damage and discoloration, according to the brand. Better yet, the bag is made from a durable polyester, which keeps dust and moisture out.

If you need to refresh your tree decor, this set of 20 ornaments is the way to go! The entire set is on sale for just $4 and they're available in six different festive colors. Since they're shatter-proof, Lam says they'll be one less thing for you to stress about over the holidays. Plus, hanging hooks are included for easy placement. And if you're in the market for a new artificial tree to display them on, this 6.5-foot faux Balsam Fir is flocked, pre-lit and 30% off!

These faux, pre-lit candles are a simple way to add that special holiday ambiance to your home -- without the risk of fire. They're made with a real wax overlay and can be dimmed with a remote control so they look like the real deal. From the mantel to your kitchen table, display options are endless according to Lam. Plus, you can use them long after the holidays end! Note: Each candle requires three AAA batteries, which are not included.

Lam loves these photo stocking holders for the sweet, personal element they'll add to your Christmas decor. Fill them with photos (or a monogram) to customize one for each family member! Lam even thinks they're great for gifting, since the addition of your recipient's photo makes for a thoughtful touch.

Could your stockings use an update? These ones from Wondershop are on sale for just $8 and come in a classic cable knit fabric that will give your space a timeless feel. Since they're available in five colors, you can match them to your existing holiday vibe. Plus, they have a loop for easy hanging.

Sending and receiving holiday cards is an exciting annual tradition, but once the season is in full swing, they can quickly pile up and become clutter. Lam's unique solution? This holiday card holder from Hearth & Hand with Magnolia. With scalloped edges and a brass finish, it has an elevated look that will turn your card collection into decor.

One of Lam's favorite parts of the holidays is curling up on the couch with a cozy drink (and we're with her!), so she's been into this automatic frother that will take your at-home barista game to the next level. There are three temperature options, nine custom combination settings and you can even add in solid chocolate -- it'll melt into the milk for a rich and decadent hot cocoa! Best of all, it's suitable to use with all types of milk and the cup is dishwasher safe.

Lights are an essential item for holiday decorating! We're eying these Wondershop mini lights, which come in eight different color combinations and are just $3 per string of 100 bulbs.

Seasonal glassware is a simple way to bring an extra touch of holiday flair into your home. Thanks to the gold-tone rim, these glasses look elevated but are just $3 each! To build a unique set, you can also shop them in three other designs: a snowflake, holiday bow and one that reads, "Merry."

Cute wrapping paper makes holiday gifting even more fun, but it can get pricey -- especially when you factor in ribbons, cards, gift bags and more. Luckily, Wondershop has a ton of inexpensive gift wrap, including this set that features two rolls of paper, ribbons and gift tags for just $5.

Bring a touch of winter to your bathroom with this snowflake-shaped soap dispenser! Not only is it cute, but it can help you save on shopping for disposable liquid soap bottles.

A snowflake so nice, you can have it twice! This set of two hand towels perfectly matches the soap dispenser, making bathroom decor a breeze. We're smitten with the tree-shaped dispenser and towel set too.

Covering up your tree stand is key to giving it an elevated look, and this textured tree collar by Wondershop will do just that -- while matching any decorations you already own! With a velcro closure, it's couldn't be easier to wrap it around the base of your tree.

Entertaining this season? Take your tabletop spread up a notch with these luxe marble cheese knives. With four different styles to help you slice, spread and serve, you won't regret buying this set. And if you're gift shopping for others, these make a great option!

Perfect for pairing with the Threshold cheese knives, this wreath-shaped board offers a festive take on the classic charcuterie board. You can also score it in a sleigh and snowflake shape.

No matter your age, a classic advent calendar is bound to heighten the holiday cheer. Not only does this one double as decor, but you can customize it by filling the drawers with small sweets and tiny toys.

Bring the tree lighting ceremony into your own home with this switch, which actually works to turn on your Christmas tree lights. It's battery-operated and integrates with your electrical outlet -- all you have to do is pull the lever. It's fun (and easy) for kids and adults alike.

Holiday decor doesn't just have to be for the living area -- you can bring the season to your bedrooms too! This set is available in four patterns and sizes, and is perfect for the whole family.

Whether you're looking to decorate your mantel, coffee table or even kitchen counter, this Christmas village with battery-operated lights will bring charm to any surface. With ten separate pieces (six trees, three houses and a church), you can display the set as you please.

With its timeless Christmas pattern, this three-piece quilt and sham set is a classic you can hold onto it for years to come. While it feels extra special, it's still machine washable -- making it easy to strip the bed after holiday guests head home.

If you're looking for a classic tree you can put on display year after year, this one is it. It's pre-lit with warm white lights so set-up is simple, and it won't break the bank, especially while on sale for less than $40! Better yet, it's flame-resistant per the brand.

If the flocked trend has your attention, Wondershop's got you covered! This tree is pre-lit with warm white lights and each branch is dusted with beautiful faux snow, bringing an extra seasonal touch to your space.
