Most of us, if not all, have some scarves that we wear in the winter, fall and even in the early spring. If you are a happy owner of a whole collection of scarves or just want to organize them after winter, here are some ways to do that effectively.
Drawers
Drawers aren’t the most comfortable space for scarves but you can still place them there, just organize them right. Take dividers or some boxes to keep each scarf on its place, and voila. This solution works perfect after the scarf season ends and you won’t need them for a long time: all the scarves will be kept safe in one place.
Stands
A special stand for towels, a ladder or a usual clothes rack can be used to organize your scarves as well. These are ready solutions that will suit any environment, and they are comfortable in using. The only drawback that I see is some floor or shelf space taken but if you are tight on it, choose a ladder, it takes almost no floor space.

Racks
A scarf rack is always a good idea, whether it’s a special rack you’ve made for them or some basic bathroom towel rack that you use for scarves. Wall-mounted and door racks take zero shelf or floor space taking advantage from vertical storage and more than that, you will be able to use some neglected space in your home, for example, the space behind the door or the wardrobe door. There are many types of racks available in stores and you can DIY some, too, so the options seem to be endless. These racks can be also used for towels, ties, hats, outerwear.

Rails
I love the idea of using rails for scarves because anyone can install them literally anywhere: from an entryway to a wardrobe. You can simple tie the scarves to the rail or use some curtain rings or hooks to hold them. Advantages? Lots of space saved and the opportunity to use these rails for other stuff, too. Disadvantages? Not even one.

Clothes Hangers
Make a simple scarf holder yourself from the things you already have at hand: a clothes hanger and clothespins. Of course, you may attach scarves without any pins or curtain rings but these won’t be many. Advantages? Quick and easy craft that saves money.
