Living in a small space and finding ample storage can be challenging. Using vacuum sealer bags to store excess bedding and comforters is a tried and true space saving solution. You can easily make your own vacuum sealer bags for storage to save space and money at the same time.
Step 1
Assemble the materials listed to make the vacuum sealer bags. Gather all the bulky items to be stored.
Step 2
Place the items into the bag. Insert the vacuum cleaner hose into the bag so the end of the hose is approximately 3 inches away from the edge of the storage items in the bag. Gather bag tightly and hold firmly with one hand around the tip of the vacuum hose.
Step 3
Turn vacuum on. Allow the vacuum to suck out all the air to create a vacuum sealer bag. Begin to tightly wrap the tape around the bag just in front of the end of the hose. Leave the vacuum turned on during this process.
Step 4
Wind the tape several times without yet removing the hose. Once bag is completely sealed off, turn off the vacuum. Write the contents that are stored inside onto the 3 x 5 card and tape onto the vacuum sealer bag. It's ready to store.
