Do you have that extra space in your wardrobe? Or maybe you wanna dedicate an extra part of your wardrobe for your bags, cos well...if shoes can have their own section, why can't bags!
Instead of hanging your bags on a rickety hat stand, that might fall over any minute, instead of hanging your bags behind your door which prevents the door from staying open properly...why not hang them in your wardrobe, out of the way AND stays much more organised!
I'm lucky enough to have a big built in wardrobe in my room, and so I decided to clean out one section of my wardrobe which clothes I haven't worn in a good few years, and make a home for my bags.
I used to just chuck my bags along the sides of my wall of my room whenever I come home, and it makes my room look messy and cluttered. As my mum always says, "You never know who's going to come to our house" and I don't want people to judge my room for its messiness. Eep.
So anyway, I ended up asking on my twitter, what could i do about my bag storage, and Sakura came to my rescue and blogged about certain storage ideas, and I thought this idea most appealed to me :) Check out her other ideas of bag storage here

So anyway, all you pretty much need is space in your wardrobe. And these cute little S hooks. I grabbed them from my bargain store for $2 for a pack of 3.
So you know in your wardrobe you have that bar thing, you just hook the S hook on it, and then hand your bags with the other curve of the hook! Easy peasy :)
For the thin strap/lighter bags, you can just put two on one hook.
And as for clutches that don't have a chain?
No worries, just fold the flap over a coat hanger than hang it!
Your bags are now organised, you can see what bag you feel like wearing without having to look all over your room for the perfect one that matches your outfit, plus with it being in the wardrobe, you can just hold it against your outfit with the mirror :) Then you just hang it back up and all is good.
Oh and you can also tell which bags you have too much of. It saves yourself from buying another bag only to come home and realise you have an almost similar bag in the hidden corners of your room haha.
For the extra space at the bottom, you can even store your shoes :) I usually don't store my shoes in my room though, I have a shoe rack downstairs cos I don't really like the shoe smell in my room haha.
Hope you found this post useful!
