How To Organize Purses

Purse hangers are a thing! There are plenty of styles to choose from based on the size and styles of your purses.
The ones above are great because they have a wide hanging area for the shoulder strap which helps to keep it from getting worn.

Whether you choose a hanging or stationary shoe organizer, they can be great for organizing purses. Use the larger spaces for pocketbooks and the smaller sections for shoes, etc.

If you don’t have a lot of pegboard space, an over-the-door handbag organizer is a great way to go. It saves space and still allows you to see your collection.

If you have a wire-frame or sturdy tote bag that only gets used every once in a blue, store your other purses inside it! This one is a top seller and also doubles as a great bag to have on hand for weekend travels.
8) Make a purse organizer from a shoe box
Whether you choose to use an old shoebox from shoes you’ve purchased or you decide to buy the boxes above, both are great options. This purse organization idea is best if you want to store your pocketbooks under your bed!

Stackable cubes with windows are perfect if you prefer to see your purses at all times. They come in different shapes, sizes, and colors so based on the purses you need to store, you can grab the ones that fit your needs best.

Organizing purses by style will quickly help you realize which bags you gravitate towards most often. This might be helpful for condensing your collection in the future. It will also help you learn which purses you can most likely store away for most of the year where they will take up less space (like a basement or attic)
20) Group Similar Purses Together
Do you have just a small handful of designer bags? Try grouping them together so they can easily be found.
