Where do you store your winter accessories?

I have a ton of hats, scarves, gloves but when it comes time to put them on I can never find them because they are all over the place. What do you use for storage, any pics would be appreciated.

Re: Where do you store your winter accessories?

I have a shelf in my entry hall closet. In the shelf I have 3 small rectangular baskets -- one for gloves, one for scarfs, one for hats.

You could use those plastic or canvas ones also

Re: Where do you store your winter accessories?

That's my problem I have no shelves in my entry closet. I have two poles for coats. I've tried baskets on the floor but other junk gets thrown in or they get knocked over.

Maybe try one of those bins like the plastic one but with the cover, I think they are even on sale at Target this week.

I find that with the cover, you can't toss things in it and I like the clear one so you can see inside.

Re: Where do you store your winter accessories?

Thank god i have tons of closets so i can store it in each respective bedroom. I bought some great boxes in the Container Store. They have styles to suit everyone's preference/style. Seasonal decorations for the house go in the attic.

Re: Where do you store your winter accessories?

I have hooks mounted to my closet door.

I hang the scarves and hats on them, then I have a small canvas tote bag hanging from one hook that holds the gloves.

Something like this - only the hooks are white on white.

Re: Where do you store your winter accessories?

gloves go in the pockets of winter coats, scarves stay on our coat rack (we have no entry closet) and hats go in the closet in the spare bedroom, with the coats.

I keep my scarves on hangers, folded thinly & draped over the bottom bar of the hanger so I can fit about 5 or so, and I can see them all.

I noly have 2 sets of gloves, so one is ion my brown coat pockets & the other in my gray! Chat Icon

Dh keeps his on the shelf, but I can't reach it.
