Spacebags are space saver-y

July 18th, 2009

We are pretty much unpacked and settling in at the new place. Since we ended up with a bit more time on our hands than we thought we’d have we started looking for ways to make this tiny apartment more functional and efficient. (AHEM, busy work)

We previously had 2 huge bins of guest blankets and pillows that took up a large amount of room in my closet so I decided to buy one of those spacebags for $20 to try it out. Wouldn’t you know, OMFG they work. Not only do they work, they are awesome and took about 2 minutes to use from opening the package until we had the stuff stored again.

Before:

With Matthew’s head for scale purposes.

During:

After!

The new storage system takes up about 1/3 of the old one. We bought a 2nd spacebag for the rest of it and now all of it sits in a spot smaller than one of the bins. A-MA-ZING. Highly recommend this product. A+++

I bought mine on amazon but I think they sell them everywhere. I think we will invest in more to store baby stuff…and maybe my winter clothes…and who knows what else.
