Organizing Gloves - Storage & Ideas

By Karen Porter, Editor

Do you lose your gloves a lot? Do you forget your gloves until it's too late to retrieve them? Try these ideas for glove storage or to store your mittens so you always have them on hand.

 

 


Gloves or mittens are best kept at point of use. Always keep a pair of gloves or mittens permanently in your car glove box or auto organizer. There are times when you will want them immediately and this will save you a return trip back into your home if you forgot your gloves. And even if you don't wear gloves in your car on a cold day (while you're waiting on that heater to kick in), you may have an emergency. If you have to change a flat tire on a very cold day, you'll be thankful for those gloves on your hands when you exit the car (your hands will stay warm and clean).

Store a pair of knit gloves in your winter coat pockets. Put one pair in the pocket of each coat or jacket that you wear frequently or to work. When you take your coat off upon returning home or at work, make it a habit to put the gloves in one of the coat pockets. You'll always have them when you need them and will never lose them. The first thing you'll want on a cold winter day is your coat or jacket. Nobody who walks an inch out of the door on a cold day fails to remember their coat instantly. But the second thing you'll want is your gloves. And you may not remember these instantly. So if you remember your coat, and that's where you store your gloves, you've always got your gloves should you need them.

Another place to keep gloves is in a decorative basket on an accent table in your foyer near the door. Your guests can throw their gloves here too. You also could stash family gloves in an over the door vinyl pocket organizer that you hang on the inside of a foyer closet door or hall closet door.

When you see gloves that you like in the store, buy several pairs at once. That way you can keep them at the different locations mentioned in this article and always have your "favorite" style on.

Of course other types of gloves such as golf gloves or latex and vinyl cleaning gloves should be kept at their point of use. Keep golf gloves attached to the golf bag or on a shelf on the golf rack.

 

Keep disposable cleaning gloves in your utility basket with your cleaning supplies, such as with the cleaner that you use to wash the floor. The Supply Caddy pictured here is from Stacks and Stacks.
