No, I do not see what you're trying to say. You are trying to relate space to your common sense. It doesn't work like that.
Space is space.
It's like a 14th century Russian peasant asking the question "what is the planet Jupiter made out of?" and expect one of us to answer in terms she could understand, especially if she expects us to answer with the word snow or dirt or wheat. Well, can you think of anyway to answer that question?
Added by edit.
Try to think of it this way. In order to have space, something must exist for us to measure with or in relative to. If nothing exists, then technically there's no space.
