Storage bag - how to make the most of your closet and bed

Opbevaringstaske - sådan udnytter du skab og seng bedst

A storage bag is a simple way to create peace in your home. It collects clothes, bedding and textiles in one place, so drawers and shelves don't overflow. A good bag makes use of space that would otherwise be unused and makes it easy to keep track of rarely used items. In this guide, you will get practical advice on how to choose and use your storage bag in the wardrobe, under the bed and as part of your other storage solutions.

Storage bag under the bed

The space under the bed is worth its weight in gold when you want to create more air in the closet. A low storage bag under the bed makes it easy to store extra duvets, pillows or sets of bed linen. Measure the distance from the floor to the bed base and choose a bag that slides in without squeezing. Pack flat so that the bag keeps its shape and is easy to pull out. Put what you rarely use at the back and what you reach for more often at the front. This will make it quick to find and put back again.

Wardrobe storage bag

In the wardrobe, a storage bag works best for anything that takes up space in piles: knitwear, extra t-shirts, shawls and textiles you want to keep together. Place bags on the top shelves or at the bottom of the closet, and give each bag a fixed category. This makes it easy to maintain routines in everyday life.

Fabric storage bag

A fabric storage bag gives a calm expression and fits into Scandinavian interior design. The fabric is gentle on textiles and easy to place on shelves. Feel free to supplement with a matching fabric storage box for smaller piles such as socks, accessories and sportswear. Stick to a few repeating sizes for a uniform and harmonious look.

Storage bag for clothes and bedding

When organizing clothes and bedding in bags, the key is to have solid categories and a simple folding method. Pack by usage pattern so you can easily take out entire sets at once.

How to pack efficiently

Choose what lives in the bag

  • Clothes: knitwear in flat piles, t-shirts in rolls for quick overview
  • Bedding: place pillowcase and sheet inside the duvet cover as a complete set
  • Textiles: throws and guest towels in separate bags so they are easy to find

Storage solutions that complement your storage bag

A storage bag makes it easy to clear away large piles. For small items that tend to get messy, boxes provide an overview on shelves and open shelves. Use a drawer organizer for underwear, belts and accessories so that each category has its own place. This way, the solutions work together: bags collect the soft and bulky, boxes create structure, and organizers keep the smallest items in line. You can use the same principle in kitchen organization and bathroom decor, where clear categories and repeated sizes provide peace of mind and make tidying up easy.

Quick steps to a tidy closet

  • Start with one category at a time, for example knitting
  • Choose fixed locations: shelves for boxes, top or bottom for bags
  • Make it visible: put the most used at the top or front
  • Keep the rhythm: always put back in the same bag or box

With a few well-thought-out choices, your storage bag becomes a stable starting point for everyday organization. It frees up space, creates an overview and makes it easy to stick to good routines - without compromising the aesthetic appearance of your home.
