Here is a photo of my new Kelly 35 insert. You can see that it stays open and conforms to the shape of the bag even with the side pockets full and the center empty. View attachment 3512316

Looks great dear PbP, thank you for posting. I've been studying shawl folding techniques and will soon place an order for shawl&scarf rings as soon as the new B35 is available on Maitai's site. I will rotate the old ones to other bags and give away some.
 
Thanks, lulilu and PocketbookPup. Do you think I should get the old MaiTai model, (on sale! now) or wait for the new Pico inserts? Or get some other brand?

I just bought my picotin insert this summer. It's the one insert that I'm not going to replace. It seems pretty sturdy to me. Because it's a square and not a long rectangle like the other inserts it seems more stable if that makes sense. Mine is the MM. Maybe the GM could use more stability? You could go either way I think. That's of no help. I'm sorry. But do get one from Mai tai. They are great.
 
I caved and ordered the new and improved Mai Tai insert for the B35 (it wasn't listed on her website, so I emailed her directly) and it was delivered within a week, beautifully packaged. It's really very well made, lovely, and weighs 6.6 ounces. Most importantly, it does not flop over. I highly recommend! Miss MaiTai was very pleasant to work with and responded quickly to my inquiries.

Sharing a look into my neurotic little world. I have been working on organizing my organizers and my bags. I found a system that works for me.

I used to store my bags upright on shelves so I could look at them. I decided to take better care of them so now they are all lying flat on their back in a covered cabinet. I need to pad the shelves for extra protection. I can already see that they are keeping their shape better. They contain only air cells as when they arrive new.

Then I decided to organize my organizers. Here are my mai tai collection organizers. I have the correct size for each bag. I find they work best that way. I filled the side pockets of each one with my essentials: Kleenex, Extra contact lenses, tylenol or Advil, phone charger, pen in plastic, mint strip, tiny nail file, hand cream. Each one is ready to go. I just add my wallet, keys, phone and glasses to the center compartment.

I found that I wasn't using my Chanel flaps as much as I should because they were a pain to load up. I would always forget something.. So I also bought a scarf ring pochette to use as an organizer for the flaps (mostly jumbos). It works perfectly. I just add it and my compact wallet and keys and I'm ready to go. You definitely have to scale down the "essentials" for smaller sized bags. For my clutches I actually keep the absolute essentials in a small plastic bag ready to go.

This really helps me to change my bags daily for my different outfits without too much wasted time or fuss and I think it provides the best protection for my bags. I hope you enjoyed this look into my neurotic little world and it helps some of you to think about a system that would work for you.

Excellent post, thankyou for sharing. I just received the Mai Tai insert for the Bolide 35 and it's fantastic: functional and lovely to look at [emoji4]

Thank you so much for sharing, @Pocketbook Pup! I enjoy seeing how you keep your beautiful H bags and inserts organized. Very inspiring to properly store items and keep items in good condition. [emoji7]

PP, a truly inspirational post, thanks so much for sharing! Amazing how similar we organize our H loot, although you have the jump on me as my box labeler still hasn't been used and my boxes have hand written file folder post-it stickies on them. :hugs:
