I used to have all my purses out on three shelves of three IKEA Billy bookcases, but I wanted to switch it up after the new year and display my vintage My Little Pony collection instead. I put all my Candaces and Duffles at the top of my closet in their bags. Instead of photos I just wrote down the bag and color on an index card. I have a photo somewhere...

My Haleys and Mini Tanners are still out, though. And that's Phoebe and a RomyGold bag hanging on silver Command hooks (5-pound).

I love your Tanner rainbow! I've tried the dust bags but I love having my bags out so I can see them when I walk into the room. They make me happy! :D
 
I was inspired to get my closet organized after viewing pictures of Treasured's amazing closet! My collection is small right now. I have my Phoebe and Candace in the shirt boxes and my swing pack in the shoe box. I need to order the sweater box for Phoebe, it's just a tad snug in there for her. Love these boxes!!! Thanks again Treasured for the wonderful tip! ImageUploadedByPurseForum1396373415.860408.jpg

ETA also need another shirt box for my Mini Tanner. (she's in the kitchen) ; )

Those are really cool. Where did you find them?
 
I got tired of spending so much time guessing which bag was where so this is what I did: I'll spare you the whole album, but, you get the idea:)

Great idea! Thank you for sharing.

My son collects Nikes - mostly Air Jordans & Retros, along with other limited editions. I'd guess he has 150 pairs (and now, rarely utters a word about my Coach collection consuming the house). He found a place that makes stickers with probably every Nike ever made - probably 1"x 3" - and now has the end of every box stickered. Hmmmm...... maybe "we" should do that for Coach?

So true about hating to go through every dust bag to find a certain bag.......I'm in the process of organizing now, and keep finding surprises I'd totally forgot I had.
 
Great thread...I love all the ideas.

I have less than a dozen bags and store them in dust bags lined up on a closet shelf. I can tell by touch which handbag is in the dust bag. LOL

Ohhhhh stickers for each Coach purse.....that would help!

..and so do I!!!:smile1: I guess it also helps that at least I have them grouped by sizes so I have an idea which shelf to go to. I love the idea of taking a picture and attach it to the bag. But at least now my BF just knows I have "tons" of bags according to him so he can not recall which one is old or new. If he sees pictures then he will know and I won't be able to hide my bag addiction :giggles:

Haha... My hubby knows I have a bag addiction but now there's evidence in plain sight! Yipes!
 
I keep my bags in the coach box stacked up on the top shelf of my closet labeled with post it notes, I really want a cabinet to put them in or something else... I have a fear of my closet shelf collapsing from the weight of my clothes hanging and all the bags stacked on top of the shelf lol
