How do you store your bags or SLG's?

I store by bags in their dust bags. I was told never to store in the boxes, as they can crack & the leather dry out. I've seen some beautiful closets where they are on display, or shelves in rooms, but I'd be worried about them fading that way. I like to keep mine looking as new as possible. Love them.
 
Hi guys! I know this thread is quite old, but I am wondering if I am storing my bags (leather, canvas)the right way. I place them on their dust bags and not in their dust bags. They are stored in a closed closet, because of this I'm scared they may not be able to breathe enough. A solution would be to remove the closet door, or just leave it open. But because I had moths in the past, I'm scared to leave my closet open.

I was wondering if there are more people that store their bags this way and can reassure me it's ok? :smile1:

Is there anyone who stores their bags the same way as me and can reassure me that it's ok? :smile1:
 
i appreciate that you want to take good care of your bag, but i really don't think you need to do all that. You're supposed to let the leather breathe, so i don't keep any of my bags or slgs in the boxes. They're really just gift boxes, not intended for actual storage. I just put mine in their dust bags when i'm not using them.

I'm so excited to share this on here since I can't exactly post this on FB! :p

I purchased my first LV exactly a year ago tomorrow. It was a Turenne MM that I ended up selling last week because I ended up never using it.

Anyway, since then I've procured a few more bags that suit my lifestyle more and was storing the unused ones in dust bags in my closet. For the longest time I did't know how I wanted to displayed them then hubby suggested the Ikea Detolf as he uses them to display his collection of figures.

Long story short, here it is my humble LV collection minus the SLGs. I love how this turned out. It's in our home office which I spend a lot of time in so I'll get to admire it just about every day. Can't wait to see this in the day light tomorrow!

Thanks for letting me share. Please post pictures of how you display your collection, I would love to see it!!

Looks cute!
I keep my bags in their dustbags in my closet. Nothing elaborate. 😃

I love seeing how people store their bags, shoes etc. mine are in a closet just dedicated for my bags and accessories. I would love to show them off but at the same time, I like it to be my little hidden/secret cupboard.

So, I'm a college student and this is how my room will look for the next 4 months. I plan on moving in permanently with my fiancé in May when I graduate, so my little extra rack with shelves is what's doing the trick for now!!!
