ABSTRACT:
A multiple purpose storage device for Christmas string of lights constructed of plastic molding. Device has two identical octagon shaped sides which twist snap together at a 90 degree angle to form a single component. A single unit molded handle with a non-restricted rotating lever snaps over a boss at each side of the reel just outside the center of the cylinder. A flexible tab facility is molded into the inner side of the reel to hold one end of a string of lights to wrap evenly around the cylinder by rotating a lever. The handle has a storage compartment at the top made with a living hinge for secure closure and easy opening. Device is assembled prior to shipping and is shipped in a sturdy corrugated cardboard box designed for storing reel and for handy stackable shelf storage.
