Storing Bedding, Clothing and Soft Toys
This is a great idea to store all your bedding, clothes the kids have not grown into, teddy bears, material your too busy to sew up, and seasonal clothes. Well, anything soft you aren't using often. Simply take your garbage bags fill them as full as you can but still able to gather the top together. Put your vacuum attachment into the opening close the top around it. Hold it tightly turn on your vacuum and watch it shrink to about 1/4 of the size. Get the heaviest bags you can get, maybe garden bags. I'm going to get some super heavy bags from a janitor supply store. Well, happy storage.

For bedding, spreading extra blankets and quilts between the mattresses keeps them clean and takes up virtually no space. Another advantage is that when needed, they are clean and easy to find. Grannygail

We did this for blanket storage. Just don't fill the bags too full and when the air is sucked out, roll the top down and tie in a knot. You roll the top down as tightly as it will go and end up with some of the bag in each hand- this is what you tie into a knot...hope this is clear, much easier to do than describe.

How do you seal it so the air doesn't seep back in?{o
