Favorite Storage Solution for Seasonal Clothing


It's that time again - time to put your winter coats away and break out your fun spring and summer clothing! If you're looking for the perfect storage solution to store winter clothing, check out one of my favorite organizing products - the DIMPA storage cases from IKEA. Here is a link:

DIMPA Storage Case from IKEA


The DIMPA storage cases come in two sizes, I have three of the smaller size and love them! They fit perfectly under a bed, so it's a great way to gain some extra storage space. Plus, they are clear, which makes it really easy to see what's inside. Best of all, they zip closed, so they will keep your clothing dust-free. You may want to consider placing a cedar sachet or block inside to keep the moths away!

Quick tip:

While these DIMPA storage cases are perfect for seasonal clothing, there are many other uses as well:

Extra bedding - store your extra pillows, feather bed, or winter down comforter under your bed.

Guest linens and towels - keep your guestroom linens and towels dust-free.

Baby/Children's clothing - preserve your favorite children's clothing.

Toys - give your children an easy storage solution for toys. They can easily clean up toys, zip the case, and slide it under their bed.

Ski/Snow gear - keep your ski/snow clothing clean and safe. Pack your hats, helmets, gloves, and goggles away for the winter and free-up some precious storage space.

Camping gear - use the storage cases to store sleeping bags, camping mats, tents, pillows, etc. Just grab the bag when you're ready for your big summer camping trip!

Linens, bedding, towels for a summer trip - pack your bedding supplies for your summer rental house.

Gear for kid's summer camp - pack your kid's sleeping bag, pillow, towels, and clothing for summer camp.

Happy Packing!!
