Do you remember those plastic zippered bags that comforters and sheets often come in from the manufacturer? I have never liked them much, mostly because in many clients’ houses I run across extensive collections of these bags! People are always keeping them hoping they will come in handy during some organizing project. The occasion almost never arrives and we end up recycling the bags. However, a couple weeks ago I can honestly say that a client and I discovered a great use for these bags.
She
had a small fan we wanted to store in the basement but we did not want it to
accumulate dust. So we popped it into
one of the old comforter bags. The bag
zipped up easily, the fan is in a transparent “container” and the fan will not
be covered in dust when she is ready to use it again. These bags can also be used to store small
appliances or other items in a dusty area so they are clean and ready to use. Try this super easy and inexpensive idea at
home!
