I keep mine in bags from this shop. She does customs for bigger toys. I had a custom Harry Potter and GoT bag made. Love them

 

I getting mine from here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/GypsyVial
They do bulk orders too!

 

I have that shop in my favorites haven’t bought one yet. Do they stay closed well? Those bags didn’t have the little clasp the other shop has so I bought from them. I really like some of the patterns in GypsyVial though.

 

Haven't ordered mines yet so I can't tell you. I plan on doing so this week, however.

 

This store is so cute! I honestly bought a bag right as i saw you post that! Ok, its in a bag, should i keep it in a plastic box too? or is it ok in the bag?

 

I bought a clear plastic bin for under my bed and a pretty color towel to put inside of it. It was like $12 dollars total. I sew so I'm in the process of making custom bags for my toys but it's taking me a while because I've been busy. I put them in the bin just to make sure nothing gets to them (I own a cat and rats).

 

She ships super fast! I have mine in the bags in a bin under my bed except one I keep in the bag under a pillow on my bed lol

 

I have mine in one of those large decorative boxes that you get from places like Tuesday Morning ^^; I have smalls and minis so they can stand upright in there. I made bags for my toys at one point but my collection has grown/changed and I need to make some more. For making your own bags I personally like more of a satin/polyester blend since they don't collect lint so much ^^

 

Hey! It's only been like, what, three weeks since i made this thread? But just an update!
I bought one of those foldout makeup chests, and ripped the shelves out! super easy! now i have my own, 5 dollar lined chest! all you need are wire cutters and time! and a vacuum...

 

Mine came in today! They come in various sizes but i the ones for a med Winston's Tongue and small Norse Horsecock need to be a bit bigger.

 

Aww we got the same color! I got this bag from a person I found on this site. There’s a med Sleipnir in it

Yours has swirls though, mine has starts but it's still pretty! I dunno what's in mine, I think it's the mini Flint.

 

I just simply use a shirt and roll it up, then hide them in a foot cubed box in my storage shelf. But after visiting some of the links above, I might get one or two of those pouches some day.

 

I stumbled upon a little shop on Etsy recently called Siren Satchels(https://www.etsy.com/shop/SirenSatchels). I only started to collect toys about 2 years ago and had them all just hanging out on a bookshelf. Sadly, because of the silicone, they were collecting all of the dust and cat hair in my apartment by sitting up there.

I decided to make the change to baggies to save myself a bunch of time cleaning toys before use. Now I can just clean em up after play time and put em away for the next time without having to re-wash before or feel paranoid about all the cat hair.

So far I love them! I've been buying up a lot of her inventory, but I have a lot of toys.

 

I mostly keep mine wrapped up in hand towels, though I'm starting to add more and more bags to my collection. I often use more than one toy in a session so my preference is to keep them bundled up together, rather than each to a separate towel/bag. Then they just go into the middle drawer of my dresser, with a few (Mostly vibrators since they're small) in the drawer of my bedside table.

The only problem with plastic bags, or plastic totes, is if you put your toy away wet and then seal the bag up so there's no airflow. Doing that can contribute to mold growth. But if your toys are dry, and/or you leave the bag unsealed, then there's no danger from the plastic itself- and plastic bags have no lint at all, so your toys stay completely clean between uses.

 

I also do two toys a session. I was wondering if they are both BD could I keep them in the same bag?

 

Yes they can! Any toy that is 100% silicone can be stored with each other safely! Its if you use silicone lube on silicone that it will break down/melt your toy.
