Help - how do you store your scarves?

I've just sorted all my scarves (15 or so) and they're rolled up and standing end-on in a drawer. It hasn't saved any more space but now I can see them all without having to burrow down to find the right one. It remains to be seen whether they get more creased; I think there will be the usual culprits that need ironing before wearing, but I tend to avoid those anyway! So far so good.

I have some Shaker hook rails fitted to the inside of my wardrobe doors by DH, brilliant for hanging scarves and even snail handbags on. You can buy them from DIY stores.

Mine are rolled á la Kondo and stood on end in a big lidded box.
If I hung each on its own hanger I'd need another wardrobe ?

Fold each scarf in to a rectangle,use the coat hangers usually used for skirts and trousers with the 2 clips at the top with,a lot of these the clips can be pushed along a bit so they are closer together for smaller scarves,then simply clip each scarf with the hangers then hang in your wardrobe.
This keeps them tidy,they don't get all creased and you can see them all easily so if you have a lot like me (40+) you don't forget what you have!

I recently saw a video on different uses for hanging shoe organisers and one of the ideas was to roll scarves and store them in the pockets. Thinking of trying this myself.

I got a sort of folding honeycomb drawer tidier on-line and have that in a drawer with scarves rolled into 1 slot each. Only works with soft scarves though, thick, warm ones usually say with the coats I wear them with.

Thanks so much nanaRayna , I saw your tip a few weeks ago and now have all my silk scarves neatly tucked into toilet roll centres .The scarf drawer is very tidy now and I dont have to spend time unravelling the one I need .Thanks again !

A couple of mine are on the floor at the moment.

Or hangs them on the coathooks in the cloakroom? Or puts them on top of the filing cabinet (also in the cloakroom, along with the ironing board, two clothes horses, a rolled-up rug for covering the hall carpet when it is dirty weather outside, a shopping trolley, an umbrella stand full of brollies and sticks, a shoerack - oh and a lot of coats.

Am I the only person who just drops scarves in a pile on an available surface? (In my case, an old bread crock standing in the hall)

Lona - Can you post the links for the ways to tie scarves, please?

I have a bamboo ladder int he corner of the bedroom where I store all scarves- and some necklaces - love it.

I have a couple of transparent plastic boxes with lids. Scarves in season are in the box in the wardrobe, out of season ones under the spare bed. Because the box is transparent I can see them all - otherwise I would forget I had half of them!

I have quite a lot of scarves, some are on an old tie rack that I picked up from somewhere, and I've had the same idea as FionaElsaDent re putting the rest on shower curtain rings. I haven't had to buy rings specially.

Whenever I buy a new shower curtain it comes with a set of rings, but I always leave the old ones in place as it's too much hassle to take a set off for no particular reason. These are my 'dressy' scarves.

My winter scarves to be worn when cycling or walking usually live on hooks in the hall from November to March before being put away in bags during milder weather.

Yes charity shops. I was in England last week and as I have no free buspass I needed change for my ticket. I dashed into a charity shop and bought a scarf for £2. Later in the week when I was leaving for the taxi to the station to go home, I saw it hanging in the hall, and slung it round my neck.
On the train to Manchester Airport a women sitting opposite complimented me on the very pretty scarf and how nice it looked.
Scarves make all the difference!

Oh dear I can feel a scarf sort out coming on, you all sound very organised. I have masses of scarves and they are in a chest in my bedroom, but I can never find the one I want so they get even more jumbled up. I know I have some lovely ones, if only I could find them!
So this week I tried on and sorted out jeans and jeggings (20 or so pairs!) - scarves next week....

Try making your own scarf hanger with a coat hanger with trouser hanging bit and shower curtain rings - hang the rings form the trouser bit and then one scarf per ring - perfect. I made one a couple of weeks ago takes 12 scarves, all easy to see and now hanging near the front door so I actually wear them now. Got the idea from my 85 year old mum!

Mine are folded and stood upright in a drawer in the Maria Kondo fashion so I can see them all; now if I am given a new one, I try and take another one out and take to charity shop!

In a drawer coiled round and heavier scarves folded flat and then clipped with trouser hanger .Are there any Moira C fans on gransnet ? I'm a big fan . The magnetic fastening make them easy to wear. I just drape them over the rung of a foam covered hanger and hang in the wardrobe. love my scarves. Also useful for covering up after op on my neck.

My silk scarves are stored in a very Blue Peter arrangement. I saved a bunch of toilet roll tubes and have stood them on end in a large shoebox. There are enough packed in there that they all stay upright. The silk scarves roll up in the tubes and I can immediately see which one matches my outfit.
My other scarves are folded in a drawer along with pashminas, sarongs, shawls and gloves. Since the silk-scarf-shoe-box fits in there too, I have an easy job of picking out my accessories....when this scruffy old dame bothers to look respectable!

I've just got all mine bunged over a hanger. I can see most of 'em. The only thing i look for in charity shops - silk scarves.

Embassies to admit I have 35 scarves for all seasons. I saved some drawers from a chest of draws , painted the fronts pale blue, put the pine knob back on and slid them under my white wooden bed frame. Very pretty place for mine.

Anne2108 those are really good ideas for those short on space.

I have lovely old dressing table and use the bottom drawer for scarves. I put a few drops of lavender oil in an egg cup and its sits among the scarves. As I only have a few silk scarves, they take up the scent.
