I just bought a few packages of sheets for the bed and I wanted to find some uses for those clear zippered bags that the sheets come in. What are some good uses for those?
I use them to store papers such as receipts for filing income taxes. You can also use them to store photos before you get time to put them into photo albums. If you have excess cosmetics or hair appliances they can be stored in these bags and then slip them under your bed to save space.
I use them for storing sheets out of season. And recently I found one that fits my waffle iron perfectly. I don't use the waffle iron much so it would collect a lot of dust if it wasn't covered.
Here are some ideas: Obviously, you can use them to store extra sets of sheets neatly in your linen closet, and keep them fresh and clean longer. I'd stick a dryer sheet in with them for scent. They are also a good size for storing winter sweaters and other clothing that you bring out seasonally. Would work well as travel bags - to pack shoes in your suitcase, so they don't touch your clothes. Or to pack cosmetics/tolietries. Or to pack underwear/socks. Store children's toys with small pieces - if you have Legos or blocks laying around without a home, or other toys with a lot of small pieces, and you've lost the container. Store craft projects, like knitting, quilting, scrapbooking. Keep all the pieces to one project in one bag.
