Do YOU use your dustbag?

Having read some of the replies, I feel like I am committing a cardinal sin by not keeping my bags in their dust bag!

I use my dust bags to keep other things e.g. I have all of my bikini's in one, and I keep the 3D glasses for my TV in another.


*blush* This is me. I use my dustbags to store make-up, bath supplies, sunglasses, hair scarves - anything and everything that just looks "sloppy" in a drawer. Then, my purses sit nicely on my racks with zero protection. I just like to look at them! But now I feel like this is a huge mistake, LOL.


I do the same with shoes. While I have kept a few dozen nicer shoe boxes, they house jewelry, knick-knacks, etc. A Lanvin box just looks so much nicer than Tupperware, LOL.


I'm sure many of you would be shocked beyond belief seeing how nonchalant I am about storing my bags and shoes.


Out of curiosity, if my bags are not double stacked but neatly displayed/stuffed, I condition them regularly, and rotate often enough - will the dustbag storage really matter? I do try to keep my rarest exotics in their bags, but maybe a few times a year I get a bug to take them out and just display them. My closet is, in a way, my happy place - if I get stressed out, I go to my closet and sit inside and look at things, LOL.
 
I always use my dust bags or a flannel cotton pillowcase for bags that didnt come with a bag. At a
Winners/TjMaxx, i have a really hard time walking away from a designer bag when it still has its dust bag. It is the sign of a prestine killer deal for me!

I found this on Pinterest from a PF member. I totally "stole" the idea and have all my expensive bags in the sweater boxes from The Container Store (turned on their side).

This works wonderfully for me as it's easy to see my bags as well as getting the in and out.

I've been using these boxes for roughly 1.5 yrs and my bags never get any dust on them.

I have them in my closet island on both sides (the other side is all bags).

*please excuse the 2 empty ones, I had sent to of my bags off to the spa when I took this pic.
