Usually up b/c I dont like the rim of my glass on a dusty shelf LOL Sometimes I rinse them out before we drink out of them too.

Re: glasses up or down?

Up - I'm cautious about chipping the rims by placing them upside down.

upside down. And I do that because of the the smaller juice type glasses I can stack 2 high (of course, the top glass is right side up).

Down. My mom always did it that way so that's how I did it.

We've got a bunch of ours horizontal as well... Chat Icon

Some are up, some are down, and some are sideways..... depends on the cups, and how full the cabinet is.

Re: glasses up or down?

Down for the same reason as the OP. I used to put them up, but DH got me into putting them down.

seems like a good split!

as a PP said, I like to stack mugs so when I put the bottom upside down, I do stack the top right side up!

Re: glasses up or down?

regular everyday glasses go up. THey're used a lot and I feel like they're always in the dishwasher

For wine glasses they go down b/c that's the way they're set up in our bar hanging

All of our cabinets are lined with this: Cabinet/Drawer Liners

So, we wipe that down periodically and place our glasses on it facing down.
