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

[mamabenny]

Mine are stuffed with the paper that they came with in their dustbags. They are all kept 'hidden' in the wardrobe. I have run out of room in the wardrobe and will have to find a new hiding, I mean 'storage' place!

I know the feeling!!!
Mine are hidden in their dustbags on the top shelves of the walk-in wardrobe- Dangerous as access to the attic is through the wardrobe-so when i see DH getting down the ladder to visit his treasures up there ,I always wonder will he spot the brown bags -but so far so good

I'm keeping them stuffed in their dustbags in my wardrobe. There's very limited space right now but I'm hoping after few years I have my own house and enough space for them. I'm specially looking for two bedroom house so I have own room for clothes, bags and shoes (I've been thinking about putting here pics before and after I've made the transform of the room and I'm going to do all the renovation by myself! no men with hammer allowed in that room)

Mine are in their bags, stuffed with the big bubble packing or tissue Mulberry send in them. They are piled high in the top cupboards of my wardrobe. My snakeskin Mabel and Python Roxy are in the Mulberry delivery boxes and my receipts and purse boxes are in another. I do love the boxes that the web site deliver in. Wish I had one each for all my bags.

Today I'm doing spring cleaning and re-doing my whole room. So much junk and old stuff to throw out, and so much reorganizing to do. My closet is definitely getting a bit cramped! I bought those organizer things from IKEA that are vertical empty slots on top of each other that you attach to your closet bar. I put a bunch of folded up tshirts and jeans in there and definitely saves up room. Now I'm wondering....is there a shelf, or hooks or anything you guys use for your purses?? I could use some ideas! As of right now, I have them on my top shelf on top of my closet all cramped up and I'm not liking it so much! What do you guys do with your purses?

I keep them all in their boxes and sleepers, then stack them in my closets.

I keep my bags in their sleepers and the ones that didn't come with a sleeper I would use a pillowcase depending on the size of the bag. And then I would stack them on my shelf

I use closetmaid available at Lowe's and Home Depot.

i put mine in their dustbag.. then in a box (if they have any) then in their shopping bag then stored on my shelf.. its a pain trying to get bags out though.. so i usually end up using the same bag due to being too lazy to change bags.

In the closet on a shelf. Usually not in the dustbag either

Does anyone know if there are certian types of storage boxes/stacks to avoid when storing bags? I see ads for cardboard-like stacking shelves but think they might buckle under the weight. Also- do you think it's better to store them where they can 'breathe' vs closed tupperware/plastic boxes? I saw the comment about not elevating the bags in the closet and it got me thinking!

Most of my bags are stored inside their dust bags, stuffed, and the ensemble kept inside their own boxes (hard cardboard that are stackable). Inside the boxes, the bags are placed on their back tilted with the aid of "pillows", so as to maintain their shape. For the ones that do not have cardboard boexes, I found the following solution:

QUBEMATES by ClosetMaids (sold by Target).
Dimensions: 16 3/8"Wx14"Dx16 3/8"H
Price: $25 plus tax (open, no door)

Also available with a door for $29 plus tax, and with drawers for $35 plus tax.

These QUBEMATES are stackable. Each comes with an adjustable shelf, so you can store two handbags of various sizes. To show you, see my photo. I have two, 30cm Hermes Birkins stored in each QUBEMATE (complete with their own "pillows"). There is enough room in all 3 dimensions to accomodate larger bags such as 35cm Birkins.
The advantages are 1. the bags can breathe, 2. I can easily spot them (put lable on the QUBEMATE if desired), and 3. I can access them easily (without the trouble of opening/closing boxes). They are, of course, very sturdy, as they are made of wood cardboard.

I place the QUBEMATES on the floor (along with my shoe boxes, inside my walk-in closet, thus they are out of the way. The boxes that hold my other bags are not heavy (relatively speaking), so they stay on the top shelves above the clothing (hung on the hangers).

I keep mine on my hook in my bedroom so then it can get aired and people can see it when they walk through my room
