Any creative solutions for storing all those big winter blankets, fly sheets, magnetic blankets, and all the other hundreds of blankets and sheets we all have?

Mine are stacked in blanket bags right now. However, I want to get the vacuum sealed bags and try those.

I bought some of those bags that you use the vacuum to suck all of the air out of.  After I cleaned them, I put them in the vac bag.  Worked pretty well, I think, but I don't know how well it would work if you had lots of them.

I was at a friends place and she had all of hers on swing out rack. It's pretty neat. I'll see if I can find a picture of it.

I have a bunch of my everyday sheets and lightweight blankets on a swing out rack as mentioned above. I also keep a few in every horse trailer and have some in platic tote boxes in a downstairs storage room. Mostly my nice show slinkies, PHT, BOT and newer sheets/blankets are kept down there.

I bought a couple of the bigger Rubbermaid totes and they work great. I can get quite a few blankets in them.

Trying to figure out the same thing right now! Living in MN means having multiples of everything! I think right now I'm gonna get one of those metal garage free-standing shelves and load them up with Rubbermaid tubs, just those tubs are darn expensive!

I have a plastic trash can that I wash and fold them and stuff them in. I've tried hanging them up, but I've never been able to keep spiders out of them.

I use the rubbermsid totes also. Write on them with permanent marker. Stack them on top of each other. Mine are big enough to put a saddle pad in flat so one has pads. Keeps everything looking good.

I use the outdoor containers. There thicker and bigger so I can store more. Then stick some laundry sheets in there to keep it smelling good.
