Newest Storage Solutions that really work!!!!

Have you noticed it seems your house is shrinking??? Storage space is at a premium for the necessities, like blankets, spare pillows and linens. Well here are a few inexpensive solutions that are simple but yet provide great returns on the investment.

The first one, I saw at a friends house and thought, "what a genius". These are almost priceless, for about $9.99 per box of 4. If you have a king size bed you need 2 boxes and then you end up with 2 left over. However, it is worth every penny to gain the storage space lost under the bed. This creates about 2 inches of more space under the bed and opens up all kinds of possibilities. For us, it created a bed for our dog, and eliminated the unsightly doggy bed that took up valuable space.


Second find is almost as benefical. zipper closing Jumbo Storage bags!!!! you get a box of 3 for about 6.99. Hefty has coupons all the time and I found mine at Walmart. I have also seen them at BJ's. The possibilities for condensing bulky items and storing items in shed and outside storage units without risking moisture or bug damage.

Hefty bag with a King size bed spread in it!!! the blue blob is a king size comforter, folded.


Close up of the bag, they are reuseable, resealable, it has the zipper closure and built in handles for sturdy easy handling. They also have a "label" area where you could write what is in there, Who it belongs too, whatever..
