Did You Know How to Store Items To Save Space?

Did you know how to store items to save space?

It seems as if we all need to save some space in our homes. But often, we have the need to store items that may take up too much space. If you have seen the "space bags" then you will love this home remedy from Haley's Hints. You can make your own "space bags" using a trash bag and your vaccum cleaner.

Simply put your airy, fluffy items into the trash bag. Slip your vaccum hose in between items. Pull trash bag securely around hose and turn it on. The vaccum will suck up the excess air in the items, flattening them to only inches. Use a rubber band to close the trash bag. Later, when you are ready to use the item, simply open the bag and the items will fluff back up in seconds.

This works great with things like pillows, clothes, stuffed animals, anything "fluffy".
