Clothes storage

I have two clothes rails in the loft, (which has drop down stairs), one for out of season clothes and one for cocktail and long dresses (yes, I know, but most of them bought from eBay and used on cruises!) Both rails covered with fitted transparent covers with zips for easy access. Needs assistance from DH or anyone else around to perform the twice yearly swap-over, but worth it for the space!

I keep all mine in my wardrobes... Summer tops on separate rail and jumpers etc below... mind they are a tad overfull!.. never have put different seasons clothes away, but do try to sort and give to charity every few months.
Have the discolouration problem with sheets etc stored in airing cupboard though, to do with the heat I believe! moved now to Ottoman.

Where I live it can be boiling one day and pretty chilly the next. I have an 'all seasons' wardrobe with nothing ever in store.

In large plastic boxes under the bed - I've not had any discolouration either.

I’ve got a camphorwood chest that I put my woollens in and things that I know I won’t need for ages.
I have two summer and winter working clothes, put the winter ones away last week, got them out again this week!

I have a large double door mirrored wardrobe.
Summer clothes in one half, winter clothes, woolies etc in the other half.

I don't put clothes away by seasons. I have nowhere else to put them. I know people store them in the loft but I can't get to my loft. I've only recently got someone to put my Xmas decs. back up there!
For those who use the underbed storage, where do you put bedding and towels? That's where I keep those. I do have an old house with no built in storage, I find modern houses are much better for this.

dannirae I have bags full of clothes like that in the loft ?

They go intospare room wardrobe. But Id like ti look at vacuum strage bags as I gether they prevent moths eating casmere jumpers?

I have a suitcase that I put the out of season clothing in, and transfer the new season clothing to the wardrobe. At changeover time, I go through the lot and take anything I haven't worn at all to the charity shop. But lugging that suitcase up/down from the top of the wardrobe is getting harder and harder, so a new system will have to be found shortly.

Mine all stays in wardrobe/drawers, lack of storage space.

I don't have lots of clothes so don't need to store out of season anyway

Does anyone else put the same clothes back in storage every six months because they are still too tight? (With the proviso that next season you will put them in the charity bag rather than in storage if still not fitting!)

I put mine in boxes under the spare room bed, never had any fading problems there.

I add a nice smelling soap. With woollens I add a couple of moth deterrent tablets and seal up in a plastic bag.

I had a 3 storey townhouse in the Harbour, with absolutely no storage space whatsoever, typical of many modern homes. So every 6 months we had the monotonous task of putting all the past seasons clothes up in the attic and bringing all the next season stuff back down.... used to drive me nuts ! Now however in our big old spacious house, I have ample storage space and keep everything within easy reach, it’s bliss !

Another one who keeps all in drawers and the wardrobe as normal. I do sort them a bit in that short sleeved tops come more to the top of the drawer and the trousers change places on the rail but that is all.

Not an issue as it all stays in the wardrobe or cupboards. Maybe I haven't got enough clothes

I have drawers which I rotate seasonally. I still keep cardies out for cooler nights.

Big travel bags in the loft.
(Out of sight out of mind)
Some items move seamlessly from loft bag to charity shop bag at changeover time when I realise I had forgotten I even had them

I always used to pack out of season clothes in storage bags on a shelf at top of a wardrobe. This year I have folded jumpers and tops) between newspaper (to keep away moths - so they say!) in 2 spare drawers. Have kept trousers and skirts hanging up. I still have stuff at top of wardrobe - needs sorting - sometime - when I ask myself? !

Vaccuum bags. Then in roller boxes under the bed.

I wear the same all year round, with the addition of a jumper or cardigan when it`s cold.

I like the vacuum bags, too but beware if you hate ironing because everything comes out hopelessly creased crumpled.

My clothes stay in the wardrobe.
They don't have 'seasonal change'

Winter - jeans, trousers, t-shirt, fleece or jumper, smart/pretty blouses (not seasonal)

Spring as above, warmer days t-shirt and gillet.

Summer - jeans (possibly white when no grandchildren about), light trousers , warmer trousers in evenings.
Autumn - same as spring.

Layers go on when cool.
Off when warm.

Ok thanks will try vacuum storage bags have been looking at them
