toy storage

[CurvyJ]

how do you gals and guys store your toys? i have mine in a box and its a bit of a mess... do you wrap each one in some sort of fabric?

I wrap mine in lint free cloths and then in a box with my lube vibrators etc. They're all silicone so if I don't they'll get covered in dust and shit

I'm a big fan of Sugar Sak. Blush makes a similar, but cheaper Antibacterial Toy Bags. Not just to keep them clean, but also to keep any strange chemical reactions happening between toys. I know you can clean lots of toys with soap and water, but I prefer using a toy cleaner. Hand soaps can contain scents and other chemicals that might be irritants, Personally I like Sliquid or Honeydew toy cleaner.

Lube tends to get messy, and some types of lubes are supposably bad for some toys. So I keep those separate.

Thank you Im going to look into the bags and we definitely need some sort of storage tower

Just want to say thank you so much for this thread. I've been having difficulties with how my dildo magnetically attracts dust and hair and wondering how to fix it (had it wrapped in a t shirt for a while but that didn't help).


On the note of cleaning - some shops do sex toy cleaning wipes but they're basically the same as baby wipes/skin wipes/make up wipes etc but more expensive because marketing.

You're welcome! We have sooooooo many and it's such a hassle especially when I take them all every night even if they aren't used. At least if I had storage bags I could just leave them in the bags until I wanted to use them instead of spending time until rolling and really rolling ect... we were using t-shirts too

Train cases for make-up are my favorite solution. Small vibes, plugs, chargers, in the trays up top, and larger toys below, wrapped in sandwich baggies so I can see what's what.

I wrap in waxed paper. Keeps them clean and lint-free and super inexpensive.

I also opt for waxed paper

smart, the plastic doesnt affect the toys at all?

If they're decent quality silicone, no. I can't speak for jelly or pvc but those shouldn't be anywhere near your body anyway.

I think the most interesting setup I have come across the model used one of those over the door hangers for shoes with her toys in the shoe slots.

I shop online for custom-made drawstring bags. Often these are unusual one-off designs with elaborate embroideries on them. That gives the whole collection of toys real personality because each bag is different and beautiful in its own way. It also keeps toys from making contact with each other and hides the contents of the bag from anyone viewing inside the place they are kept. It is hard to find perfect dimensions, so generally I go for oversized bags and then just fold the top half of the bag over.

I just have mine in a box, in my nightstand. I don't bother to get fancy with little bags and stuff because I clean my toys before and after use. (clean freak over here)

I have mine in a 42L rolling container, I keep my non-glass dildos in the boxes/bags they came in because I don't like them touching, but it's a mess and I need to sort it out. Thinking about getting smaller, rolling under-bed containers so I can sort between dildos/anal toys/bondage/paddles/etc. I think I'm also going to get drawstring bags for everything, like the person above does :O that's a good idea.

Also yeah, jelly is very bad. Harbours so much bacteria and breaks down faster than regular toys. The only time I'd use jelly is if it was a one-time thing, e.g jelly dildo for anal and then tossing it after making the clip.
