Whoa - I'm dumb. I think I've had a total of 9 hours of sleep over the past 3 nights so I'm clearly not seeing things correctly.

How do I store my bags? I have an office on the main floor of the house and I have them in the closet, on the door handles, on top of fileboxes. It's just me, books, yarn and bags. And a LOT of paper. And the cat sleeping on the chair.

Thanks so much - I am a very lucky girl!

I believe California Closets is a national company - you might want to Google them for your area. There are a few other companies that also do the custom closet installations as well.

I use the space saver bags you get at Bed Bath and Beyond. I usually put about 3 handbags into the medium size bag and compress them for later use. Keeps them dry and clean and makes it easy to store too!

I use to keep them in thier dustbags on the closet shelf but then when you don't see the bag, you almost forget you have it, so now they're all sitting pretty on their dustbags like this:

My DH made a cabinet for them that is in the kitchen. They are all in their dustbags. Eventually I will photograph them and hang the pictures on the inside of the doors. Since the cabinet is in the kitchen, it makes changing out bags a lot easier!

When my handbag collection began to grow and GROW, I separated them by seasons, and I now rotate them in and out of an antique Japanese tansu (a tall chest of drawers). My current season bags are stuffed with tissue, placed in their sleepers and sit on built-in shelves in my closet. Our builder placed heating/cooling vents on the ceilings of all our walk-in closets.

Of course there's another reason for separating my handbags: my husband has no idea how many handbags I have! :p

:heart:
