If you’ve ever dug through a mountain of handbags just to find “the one” for the night, this post is for you. Let’s talk purse organization—because your bags deserve better than living in a pile on the floor.
Here are 10 quick and easy ways to get those beautiful purses organized (bonus: you’ll actually be able to see them again).
1. Hooks in a Closet
Simple, effective, and renter friendly. Hang your purses like art and free up shelf space.
2. Hooks Behind a Door
Sneaky storage at its finest. Just don’t slam the door too hard, or you’ll give your bags whiplash.
3. Purse Dividers on a Shelf
Think of it as VIP seating for your handbags. Everyone gets their own space and less pileups.
4. Wicker or Fabric Bins
Cute and functional. Great for smaller crossbodies or clutches that tend to vanish into the closet abyss. Ver effective space saving.
5. Clear Bins
See it, grab it, go. Perfect if you’re tired of the “mystery purse shuffle.” Bonus points if it's covered to prevent dust and dirt.
6. Shelf Inserts
Double your shelf space, double your purse storage. (Also works for shoes if you’re feeling wild.)
7. Purse Hooks
Come in all shapes and styles. Search "S hooks" Hang on your existing closet rods and easily see them. Bonus points for double purse hooks so that 2 purses take up less space.
8. Wall-Mounted Rack
Turn your purse collection into a feature wall. Bonus points if you coordinate by color—it’ll look like a boutique.
9. Shelf Organizer Cubbies
Each purse gets its own cubby like a kindergarten kid. Adorable and functional.
10. Decorative Ladder Rack
Lean one against the wall, hang your bags, and suddenly you’re “Pinterest chic” without breaking a sweat.
Bonus Pro Organizer Tip:
Want to switch purses in under 60 seconds? Use the 3 pouch + 1 bowl method:
Keep electronics in pouch 1, makeup in pouch 2, and everyday essentials (wallet, keys, etc.) in pouch 3. Bonus points for using different color or size pouches that make it easy to tell them apart.
When it’s purse-switching time, dump everything else into a decorative bowl (cute and practical). I'm sure you have one or could buy one.
Grab your pouches, pop them into your new purse, and you’re out the door faster than your husband can say, “Do you really need another bag?”
Because let’s be real: life’s too short to lose lip gloss in the purse shuffle. If you have other great ideas, please comment and share. Let me know if you try any of these.
