If you are like most women, then you probably have a closet full of purses. You have different purses to match your shoes, clothes and outfits. All these purses can cause your closet to become crowded and look junky. There are things you can do to organize your purses and keep them in easy accessible without overcrowding your closet.

Items Needed to Organize Purses:



  • Closet Space

  • Shelves

  • Purses


How To Organize Purses



  1. Pull out all of your purses. There are probably handbags hidden that you do not even know you have.

  2. Decide on which purses you want to keep and the ones you want to part with. The ones that you want to part with pack them in a bag to donate or give away. Be sure to check your bags before packing them up to give away. You never know what treasures you may find in them.

  3. Determine where you want to keep your purses in your closet. If you have shelves in your closet, you may want to clean them off especially for your purses. 

  4. Arrange your purses in the order that you plan to carry them. The purses that you carry as casual should come first. These are the bags that you are most likely to take on an everyday basis. If possible arrange casual purses on a shelf or space by themselves.

  5. Put more formal purses on a shelf by alone. For special and more expensive purses you may want to protect them with a special plastic covering to avoid mildew.

  6. Arrange your purses by color. If you have more than one purse of the same color, arrange them by color on the appropriate shelf or area in your closet. This will make it easier to find them.
