Kalliegirl - would it be possible to post a picture of the "gauze-type" pocket? Thanks!

OKey Dokey ... here is the pocket I was speaking of ... it came with my Bolide and it holds the air pillows.

Is it better to store the bag standing up or lying down? I kept mine standing up in the dustbag but noticed that some are keeping theirs in a dust bag and lying down in the box. And do you normally put the felt cloth under the front straps during storage (like how it came from the store)?

PS Love all your closets pics. Trying to give hubby an idea for ours.
 
What stunning displays the shelves provide! Such amazing sights to behold!!!

I really didn't have a place for a shelving unit and my house has skylights and is a Southern exposure and gets a lot of sunlight. So keeping them out really wasn't an option for me.

It worked out that I had an empty wall in the dining area of my great room. It is near the garage door and a very handy spot for a cabinet. I found the perfect one from Ballard Designs and it works really well for me.

I keep my Bolide standing in the center because there is only room for 4 bags to "rest"! There is even a shelf for my KP and Jige. If I ever want to enjoy seeing my bags, I can bring them out and stand on the top.

I do keep the bag I am carrying sitting out. If it is a sunny day, I cover it with a matching shawl until the sun moves away. Each of my bags has a coordinating cashmere (not H) shawl!

Kallie.......what a wonderful cabinet to house all of your Hermes Bags. I wish I had something where they would all be in the same place. I know what you mean about the sun........I throw something over my bags to keep them out of the direct sunlight, too! :sunshine:
 
What a great thread! Loving all the closets! All work of art! Great inspirations :) I hope that DH will build a custom-designed closet for my H collection one day, hopefully soon! He loves projects!

Also yes, I also use acid free tissue paper and have not had any problems! I'm waiting for my DH to make me a 'pillow' to fit perfectly into all my 35cm! Anyone have good ideas in going about doing this??? He could use some help, but don't tell him I said this!!!
