In the process of moving books, and magazines now. They are residing in totes on the floor.
I used spacebags a few years ago to store batting but they didn't seem to hold their vacuum and expanded horribly after a few weeks! I may try some new ones, maybe they are better now. How old are yours?
I have some of my batting in space bags. My space bags were at least two yrs. old. and no problems yet! I get out what batting I need, suck out the air and they've stayed flat so far.
I figured it would be a nice way to store them, as well as get rid of the box that the space bags came in - more room elsewhere in my house.
The books are put away, I have more carpet showing now - been working on it. Done for the night now.
