Questions About Book Shelf Display
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023
    To display bags on a shelf, first stuff them with acid-free tissue paper or white cotton towels. Doing so will help the bags maintain their shape. Next, arrange them in an appealing way. For example, you might want to group certain colors or materials. To reduce the risk of fading, choose a location that doesn't receive direct sunlight. Also, wipe the bags regularly with a water-dampened cloth to remove dust. On 1stDibs, explore a large selection of handbags.
