I grab them in the middle, and wrap them quickly around my hand so that I have a little spiral of scarf. They all fit next to eachother, it's quick, and I can see everything. I looks like this, but without the divider: <a href="http://www.asimplesolution2organizing.com/280_210_csupload_19235877.jpg?u=2412844969" rel="nofollow">http://www.asimplesolution2org.....2412844969</a></p> <p>I just store my bras "standing up" in a row. Panties are in a stack, and after I do laundry I put the newly cleaned ones on the bottom. I just take from the top of the stack (or a couple away from the top) everyday so that they all get worn equally. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anybody-have-a-great-solution-for-storing-scarves-andor-lingerie#post-294721 Wed, 09 Feb 2011 02:26:50 +0000 Michelle 294721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another devotee of the wooden hangers with slots for scarves, ties etc. I have one for necklaces and another for scarves, and I don't know how I functioned before. The ones I got were very affordable, too, about $8. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anybody-have-a-great-solution-for-storing-scarves-andor-lingerie#post-294695 Wed, 09 Feb 2011 02:10:51 +0000 Lisa 294695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the wooden hanger that is horizontal, everytime I try a vertical option I can't find all the scarves piled onto each other, thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anybody-have-a-great-solution-for-storing-scarves-andor-lingerie#post-294621 Wed, 09 Feb 2011 00:31:14 +0000 lyn* 294621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am too cheap for drawer dividers, so I cut up shoe boxes and soup-tin cardboard boxes to put into my drawers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anybody-have-a-great-solution-for-storing-scarves-andor-lingerie#post-294616 Wed, 09 Feb 2011 00:14:07 +0000 Kristine 294616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Drawer dividers changed my life! The sections can still get a little messy but you can separate any way you want (color, dressy vs. casual, etc.). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anybody-have-a-great-solution-for-storing-scarves-andor-lingerie#post-294540 Tue, 08 Feb 2011 22:22:08 +0000 Anonymous 294540@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For both undies and scarves I have them neatly rolled and in rows in drawers. If I roll them carefully they don't seem to wrinkle much and I can see everything at a glance. I can also get alot in a fairly shallow drawer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anybody-have-a-great-solution-for-storing-scarves-andor-lingerie#post-294535 Tue, 08 Feb 2011 22:16:21 +0000 Laura B. 294535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This sounds kinda silly, but I use a coat rack above my dresser to hang my scarves. It was cheap and it's inspiring to me to see all those lovely colors first thing in the morning! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anybody-have-a-great-solution-for-storing-scarves-andor-lingerie#post-294518 Tue, 08 Feb 2011 21:55:03 +0000 Aida 294518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have my silk scarves on a tie rack of sorts, and my more substantial scarves on a scarf rack that hangs on the back of the door. I'm thinking of getting some clear plastic bins for the silk scarves though, they get worn less often and I want to protect them from dust. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anybody-have-a-great-solution-for-storing-scarves-andor-lingerie#post-294512 Tue, 08 Feb 2011 21:48:27 +0000 DanaLynn 294512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a plan for my scarves but haven't gotten around to it. I plan on installing a towel rack in my closet that I will add the cheap plastic rings designed for a shower curtain. Essentially it will be a bar with dozens of rings I can pull my scarves through. That way I can easily see them all. I got the idea from the container store. </p> <p>The section on the bottom right has tips.

I have the same thingie, and I agree it's pretty handy, except for the fact that you don't see all your scarves when they're hanging 'sideways'. I'm going to get a nail and a hammer tomorrow and fix this, thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anybody-have-a-great-solution-for-storing-scarves-andor-lingerie#post-294454 Tue, 08 Feb 2011 20:27:34 +0000 Antje 294454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For my scarves, I have this IKEA product: <a href="http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/70108912" rel="nofollow">http://www.ikea.com/us/en/cata.....s/70108912</a></p> <p>It's been a pretty good solution for me. I actually put the hanger on a nail in the wall in my closet, rather than on the rack - this way I can see the scarves much better. It gets a bit full at times when I have too many scarves, and sometimes one slips off when I'm picking one out, but overall it's the best scarf solution I've had. The nice thing is that it fits a great variety of scarves - both very thin skinny ones, and bulkier ones (which would probably not fit onto the scarf hangers with the 10 smallish holes that seem more commonly advertised.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anybody-have-a-great-solution-for-storing-scarves-andor-lingerie#post-294445 Tue, 08 Feb 2011 20:17:22 +0000 Queen Mum 294445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a hanger with holes in it that I hang my scarves on.

Right now I'm featuring woolens and a few go-with-anything silks. I don't wear a lot of colorful clothes, so having the more colorful scarves out and about reminds me to add a pop of color at the very end of putting myself together. When the season passes, I re-edit my choices then hand wash and store the out of season options away from light and dust in a hat box until their time comes again. </p> <p>I keep my everyday lingerie in two large, flat baskets tucked into the shelves of a rustic pine olive oil display stand I bought at a tag sale. Bras, panties and foundation garments get rolled and tucked into one basket; socks and tights are rolled and tucked into the second. Both baskets have cotton liners to avoid any snags, and I can easily see every item when I pull out that particular basket. Sexier lingerie is stored in a large hatbox up in my husband's side of the closet because he's the one who reminds me to actually wear it! </p> <p>We don't have a walk-in closet or a conventional chest of drawers. We have open shelving down the middle of our shared, single pole closet, a generously scaled antique armoire with more shelves, and a few smaller pieces of open shelving, so I have gotten used to living with bits of clothing storage worked in here and there around our room. I don't mind so long as everything has a place to be put away, is stored attractively, and can be easily found when needed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anybody-have-a-great-solution-for-storing-scarves-andor-lingerie#post-294420 Tue, 08 Feb 2011 19:26:56 +0000 Ornella 294420@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I keep scarves folded and stored in the drawer in the organza bags, you can get them cheaply off ebay.<br /> I store my jewelry like that too as I don't have adequate hanging space / solution. It's then easy to look through them as I can easily see the content, and they don't get entangled or scratch each other.</p> <p>Lingerie is another story, all crammed in the drawer, and I'm looking fwd to the ideas here.<br /> (Now that I think about it, perhaps larger size organza bags for the lingerie would at least take care of part of the issue.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anybody-have-a-great-solution-for-storing-scarves-andor-lingerie#post-294413 Tue, 08 Feb 2011 19:08:09 +0000 Louise 294413@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For lingerie I have plastic boxes to divide the drawer. I'm also very methodical about folding them and placing them in piles.

All the links I find on the internet suggest hanging in your closet, but my closet space situation is not fantastic--plus things are not very visible in my closet--so I'm wondering if anyone has better ideas. I saw these little drawer dividers once intended for lingerie--I might buy one for my scarf drawer too. But maybe someone has a better solution? </p>
