Tips to take care your beloved BagsTip #1 : Do not flatten your bagsI have lots of bags and my friends always ask me how I keep my bags.
I feel that it's important not to flatten the bags. For example, it would be advisable to buy a stuffing pillow to keep your bag stuffed and store it. This way, it maintains the shape of your bags. Budget constraint? I read in some website that you can actually use your old clothes. Choose acid-free stuffings.

This will prevent the bags from sticking to the cupboards over time and transferring colour from two bags. If you lost your dustbag, replace with another one or sew your own cloth bags :) Someone suggest using a pillow case cover as a dustbag too!
Tip #3 : Stay away from moth repellantThis is a tip I got from a forum. It was stated that Moth balls cause the monogram canvas to wear prematurely, resulting cracks. This is a common mistake where it comes to storing your LV bag, so next time before you store your bag in the cupboard, make sure you remove the moth balls first.
Tip #5: Use a Base ShaperUse a base shaper for your big bags with broad base. Especially LV Speedy,LV Neverfull and Longchamp bags... available commercially as well as you can recycle the shaper of the older bags that you do not use anymore... I used to make my own from cardboard and customised the shape and size myself.
Tip #6: How to clean your bag?Don't just use any weird leather cleaning products you find in the supermarkets etc... I was told that Apple Care works.. It's the recommended product for LV etc
