Xiao Fei, a storage expert, said: "To make the storage at home 'grid-like', make full use of all kinds of Spaces, and at the same time, be good at using various storage tools. Only in this way can you 'take and put things in the right way'."
Quilt storage
Vacuum bag vs. bamboo charcoal box
Nowadays, there are many kinds of quilts. Take Xiaofei's home as an example: She herself uses a down quilt, which pairs perfectly with the soft bed, making it the perfect place for sleeping in. The parents use relatively thick silk quilts, which are less likely to cause allergies. Grandma still likes to cover herself with the traditional "big cotton quilt", because it is warm and comfortable to cover her body, and also gives a feeling of "pressing on the feet".
Xiao Fei said that these three types of quilts all need different storage methods. For instance, a down quilt needs to be dry-cleaned. After being retrieved, it should be properly placed in a well-ventilated area to air dry to remove the smell of the dry cleaning agent before being stored. The popular "vacuum storage bags" on the market are more suitable, but be careful not to use a vacuum cleaner to dry out the air too much, otherwise the down inside the quilt will be difficult to regain its elasticity next year. As for silk quilts, they cannot be washed with water or exposed to the sun. They can be stored in a well-ventilated place after being thoroughly dried, but vacuum bags should not be used. It is better to choose a bamboo charcoal non-woven fabric
storage box with a certain height space. As for the "old cotton quilt" that the elderly like, it cannot be washed with water, but it can be directly exposed to the sun. After vigorously beating off the dust, store it in a vacuum bag, suck up half of the air, and make the quilt slightly thinner. Don't suck it too dry.
Xiao Fei also particularly pointed out that many families like to put their large winter quilts in the bed box, but this choice is not good because the bottom box of the bed has poor air permeability and is more likely to accumulate moisture. You can store the quilt on the upper layer of the wardrobe. If your home is on the first floor or in a bungalow, it is also necessary to lay a moisture-proof pad on the cabinet board.
Winter clothes
Make full use of the "drawer-shaped space"
Sweaters and scarves, as well as decorations like gloves and hats, are particularly easy to be stuffed everywhere. If you simply wash and fold your clothes in a stack, you will often find that the next winter your clothes have been pressed into stiff creases and it will take a lot of effort to iron them out.
Xiao Fei suggested to me that for the storage of these "delicate" clothes, it's best to divide the space inside the wardrobe into smaller parts. The tools that can be utilized include paper box storage boxes, hanging storage compartments, and even plastic organizing boxes - in short, the more "drawer-like space" you have in your wardrobe, the better! In this way, the number of clothes stored in each small compartment will not be large. It will not only look neat but also be light in weight, without any creases.
It should be noted that while compressing storage space, the prevention of mold and insect damage to clothes should also be given equal attention. Camphor balls with a pungent smell are not suitable for families with little babies or pets! You can cut the soap into small pieces and place them in different corners of the wardrobe respectively. For all-cotton and woolen clothes, it is best to use breathable storage tools. Non-woven bags are more suitable than plastic bags. In addition, they should be taken out and dried regularly to prevent insect infestation.
For winter clothes like cashmere coats that need to be hung up for storage, Xiaofei "seriously" recommended to me a kind of transparent plastic clothing dust cover. You can buy a dozen (12 pieces) on Taobao for about 50 yuan, or even cheaper. These dust covers have ventilation holes, so there is no need to worry that clothes will be "suffocated" when placed inside, and they can also effectively prevent dust.
Winter boot storage
Make good use of "waste" for maintenance
When it comes to the maintenance of winter boots, Xiao Fei said she has three good tools to turn waste into treasure: old toothbrushes, expired skin cream and old stockings. This step is actually quite simple: For those boots that are not visibly dirty but just covered with dust, just use a small toothbrush to brush off the dust and dirt, and stuff the shoe shaft with newspapers or pieces of cloth to fix the shoe shape. Expired skin cream must have a bit of oiliness. It's best if it doesn't have a strong fragrance. Apply a thin layer. After the boots have been fully ventilated and dried in this way, you can directly put the long stockings on them and store them in the shoe box. This way, they can prevent dust and will not affect the shape of the shoes.
It should be noted that whether you directly use the "original" shoe box purchased or choose a fashionable and colorful crystal shoe box, you must select one with ventilation holes to ensure good air circulation.

"Random Thoughts
Even if your furniture selection is a failure (for example, a large wardrobe with only one clothesline inside and no layered storage design), you can still create a suitable storage space by yourself. In a home, the most important storage space is the "drawer". However, this drawer doesn't necessarily have to have a lid; what matters is to divide it into many grids.
For instance, if the depth of a cabinet is relatively large and you need to stack clothes or sundries inside and outside, you can use baskets or wicker baskets with handles on one side to make "drawers". This way, it's very convenient to take out and put in clothes and sundries. When cleaning, just take out all the "drawers" in the cabinet and you can thoroughly vacuum or clean it.
If your wardrobe is large enough, you might even consider buying a cheap bookshelf to put it in! Adding rattan baskets or plastic shallow baskets to the bookshelf can also serve as drawers for storing clothes, which will greatly enhance the planning of the space. However, it is particularly important to pay attention to the issue of size - when you first start learning about storage and organization, it is very easy to "pay the tuition fee" because the size is not suitable.
Also, many people have misunderstandings about the allocation of storage space. For instance, many families keep thick quilts and pillows that are not used in daily life in bed boxes. It should be noted that this is a very closed space that is not easy to breathe, which is particularly unfavorable for the hygiene of these bedding items. The correct way is to wash and maintain the quilt and pillow, then place them on the upper layer of the wardrobe. At the same time, pay attention to moisture-proofing - especially in summer, you can make full use of moisture-proof pads to ensure dryness.
"GO recommendation"
Storage wonder
Multi-functional hanging bag behind the door
Many people, when organizing their wardrobes, completely fail to notice that there is also a great storage space behind the cabinet doors. With this multi-functional bag hung behind the door, this space can be fully utilized. Especially gloves, headwear and small undergarments, etc., are easy to take and put away. It should be noted that when choosing this kind of hanging bag, it is best to pick one of good quality. Otherwise, it will break easily if you put a little heavy stuff in it. How sad!
Stackable storage box
If you only have a narrow vertical storage space, then this stackable small storage box with a lid that can be lifted from the top is very suitable. Placed in the kitchen, it can categorize and store rice, dried goods, and even vegetables and fruits. Placed in the bedroom, it can sort and store small items such as belts, socks, and small clothes of the whole family. When taking things out, there's no need to pull out the storage box. Just reach out and take them directly. The prices range from tens to several dozen yuan. It's important to choose an online store with a good reputation and high product reviews.
