I'm considering purchasing classic flap but i cannot decide whether to go for lambskin or caviar. For those of you out there who own both, do you store them differently? It seems like you need to be more careful with lambskin when you store...

stuff them with paper tissues, put the bags inside the given dust bag or a clean pillow case and place them in my cupboard in the sitting up straight position.

Hi ladies, I recently got my first classic flap. When I try to tuck the chain in, it seems tight. I'm worried that I'm damaging the flap by forcing it to close over the chain. Does anyone have a pic to share of the tucked in chain?

I have invested in several bag-a-vie handbag pillows In different sizes and place one inside the bag, place it in it's dustbag and place it on a shelf. I keep my boxes but don't store the bag in them. I place one medium pillow in my maxi and two pillows in my Birkins and garden party bags. They work really well and I don't have to deal with tissue paper. Worth the investment.

Hello!! As I am new to chanel world, I would like to know how do you store your chanel bags. You keep them in the original boxes?
I saw selling on e-bay a kind of small "pillow" to put inside the bag for storage, so it wont loose its shape. Has anyone used it??
Thank you!!!!!!! :smile1:

Are there any purse inserts / organizers available that will fit into a Medium classic flap when using the bag?
I am pretty scared of scratching the red leather with keys etc.
Would be most grateful if anyone knew where I could buy one, or any other tips for keeping the inside clean and scratch-free?
Thanks

Typically I would store any hard-edge objects in another pouch to prevent the interior leather from being scratched. I use ziplock bags as well for make up (before storing them in the makeup pouch) to prevent any potential spillage / stains.

hope this helps (:

Thankyou :)
Would never have thought of the ziplock bags! Thanks also to the helpful tips previously posted regarding storage. I've now bought myself some white felt and Velcro strips and am in for a busy weekend crafting pillows and flap protectors :D
