How do you store or display your purses/bags/handbags?

[alyssa.tran]

I also never rotated my bags because they were all put away, so I got a tall narrow bookshelf from IKEA to display them, and now I get much more use from my items! I live in AZ where it’s not humid, and no sunlight or heat comes through the window because of the direction/shading.

 

[Purses & Perfumes]

I have a wooden armoire with doors (its a corner unit and does not occupy much space) and I store my bags in them. I like this system because I can see most of my bags at a glance when I open the doors. I used to store them in their dust bags on the top shelf of the closet but found that I did not rotate my bags much when they were up on the top shelf. My collection is mostly contemporary designers at this point, and I only store two of my bags in their dust bags. If space is a constraint, maybe try attaching a photo of the bag to the dust bag? A visual cue like a photo may help as a reminder to rotate handbags.

I have a hanging shelf/rack thing in the closet. I store them on that in their dustbags

Due to small spaces here in Hong Kong, I store my purses inside their dustbags. But I think, even if I have bigger spaces to store my bags, I would still store them inside their dustbags. I can't imagine getting dusts on my bags just because I want to display them...

I keep mine in a storage bin under my bed. Never worry about warmth or light. I have a louie going strong after 17 years. If your bed is high enough you may want to try it and my hubby never looks under the bed. I just love bags and always need one more .

Nice! I may try this thinking of going to buy maybe like those pretty cardboard trunks just for my bag , that way if I need to Lysol or turn on the ac or heater I think it should be safe lol I live in a very small apt

I just got my new shelf today! (The shorter one on the left. I've had the one on the right for quite a while)


Still not completely done and there are bags not yet on the shelves, but I'm pretty happy with having all my bags out in the open! My bedroom is tiny (I'm in NYC, Financial District! So it's very small) so this actually takes up quite a big portion of my room, but I don't mind at all.

I used Ikea detolf glass-door cabinet to store and display my bags. I stuffed my bags to retain their shape and put them in their dust bag and they each have their own shelf. *pics not mine. got them from the net*

The only problem with this cabinet is that it is not fully enclosed (for breathable purposes), so dust tends to swoop in through the gaps. I have to take the bags out once in a while, to dust and wipe down the cabinet

Both. I don't have much room in the bedroom, but there are a few LVs on the dresser, and the rest of my bags are in the closet.
The nice things about storing them is that it keeps the fresh feeling of, "Oh, hey haven't seen you in a while!.."

My bags sleep in their respective dust bag at the top of my closet close to the air vent. I admit my clutches have to share their home with small bags but I wrap at least one with tissue paper so not rub. My wristlets live in single file in a tote bag. I am in the process of decorating my master bedroom and would like to integrate some nice shelving to display (and remember) my bags.

My bags used to reside in their dust bags in a large, clear bin in our closet, but I just found a cute solution to hold my smaller, lighter bags. Amazon for the win! I can even zip one of these doohickeys onto the bottom of the other one to make the display take up less space. Now to convince the hubby to move his clothes to the second bedroom’s closet so I can have this closet to myself...

I keep them in my closet in their dust bags. The leather ones are stuffed with acid free tissue paper and the canvas ones with bubble rap.I use Samorga organizers in my Neverfulls,
Noé and Speedy's. That helps to maintain the shape.
I always store them upright and make sure that chain straps never touch the leather. At least once a month I air the leather bags out and check if they need conditioning.

I use the ikea billy book shelves and they work perfectly for my purses and shoes

I have a purse organizer for my closet shelf and an armoire that I finally took the time to really organize today so that I’m 100% happy with them. The organizer holds all but two of my LV’s (the other two hang on wall mounted hooks) and the armoire holds all of my Coach. All my other bags are stored in a vintage steamer trunk in their dust bags with a few on the closet shelf next to the organizer. My OCD was seriously satisfied today working on this project lol.

I had to have a clean up of my handbag wardrobe...got really tired of not finding the bag I wanted.Ended up commandering another cupboard. Lots more room to sort how I like them.

I need to find a storage solution where they all sit on a shelf. Currently I have them each in a dust bag stuffed into a large cardboard box. I don't switch that often because it's too much trouble to pull the box down from the top shelf in the closet and then open all the dustbags to see what I want to use. Love all the inspiration here!
