I think I'm in the minority, having no special fondness for either shoes or purses.<br /><br />If the handbags are organized and used, I can't see any reason not to have a collection, if it brings the owner pleasure. We all have our weaknesses!Jeri Danskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01647833266269245240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4238401484560614586.post-92132056552595363252010-01-14T09:11:38.428-08:002010-01-14T09:11:38.428-08:00Jeri, came over from Meredith's blog because t...Jeri, came over from Meredith's blog because this is soooo my thing.

It's essentially a long strap of packing tape (or interfaced fabric) with large press studs on loops. With a bit of thought, the studs/loops could be placed to allow for tidy placement of bags with different length handles.SueBKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13484316295832915889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4238401484560614586.post-30566604980380182662010-01-04T11:34:18.806-08:002010-01-04T11:34:18.806-08:00Thanks so much, kbfenner!

I also found it hard to reconcile the strap length issues--some of my bags are shoulder only and some and hand-carry only. Made quite a mess, even when the hooks held.<br /><br />So do choose one of the more well-constructed strap-with-hooks hanging things if you are buying and consider what styles of bags you have. I have simply placed the bags on a shelf side by side like books. The dustbags, which I suppose I ought to use, make it hard to see the bags so I don't use them. Maybe those clear jobbies would be a better choice!kbfennerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04171914955271023282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4238401484560614586.post-42506025162476013702010-01-04T08:45:31.332-08:002010-01-04T08:45:31.332-08:00Meredith, you're very welcome.
