8 Ways to Use a Zipper Storage Pouch

I was wandering around one of my favorite stores and found this great zipper storage pouch! This zipper pouch measures 12 inches long by 15 inches wide and can expand to about 2-3 inches when zippered. It's a great size to use for a variety of items.

So, I thought to myself, "Self, how many ways can I use a pouch this big?" This is what I came up with. Enjoy!

8 Easy Ways to Use a Zipper Storage Pouch

Store Your School Textbooks in Pouch

Idea 1: Get several of the pouches and use one for each subject. Label (Affiliate Link) the subject on each bag and put it in your locker when you do not need it. If you are looking for more back-to-school ideas, visit our posts here.

Gather the Small Loose Toys and Store in Pouch

Idea 2: Store small loose toys in the pouch. With the zipper, it will keep everything in one place and will never spill out unless the pouch opens, that is. Feel free to visit our 29 Days Small Items Big Clutter Challenge for more ideas on things you can store in the pouch.

Add Your Collections to the Zipper Pouch

Idea 4: Coin collections and other collections. If you have books for your groups, they fit nicely in the zipper pouch.

Store children "things to do" at Grandma's

Store Important documents so they don't get wet.

Idea 8: Important documents! Wills, passports, insurance policies, and other important documents and store them in a safe (Affiliate Link), dry place.

How much do these pouches cost?

The cost of these pouches ranges from $3.00 to $5.00, depending on the type you get and where you get it. I hope this inspires you to get your small stuff organized with a zipper pouch or two.

You can buy them in large quantities on Amazon (Affiliate Link) (Affiliate). See the links below.

    I, too, am a fan of zippered pouches! Mine are a little different...poly zip, only 10X13, expand to an inch. I use them to corral papers pertaining to individual projects. Kinda like a manila folder, but you can see in and they can't fall out. I'm curious about yours, though. Are they available online? Also love the larger Ziploc bags, but can't always find them.
