[BCMA] garment bags

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

Hi Wendy,

At the Steveston Historical Society, we have used multiple types of garment
bags for our historical costumes to varying degrees of success. The ones we
have found the most useful are the extra large, clear, breathable garment
bags.

Reasoning:
- The XL size fit our larger/longer items (lots of skirts and full size
jackets)
- Clear made it easy to identify and find the costumes (saves a lot of time
when you have many)
- Breathable helps with keeping away mold. We also put lavender sachets and
cedar balls in each bag to repel bugs

Please let me know if you want an exact link, and I can provide you with a
link to the ones we've bought most recently.
