I have a hundred chokers for my fashion, and I cycle them every single day.
Currently, They are all stored in their original plastic sleeves.
This means my routine is as follows.
- Pick up pile of sleeves
- Select a choker by shuffling through the sleeves like they are cards.
- unpack choker
- place choker on for the day
- remove choker
- put choker back in sleeve
- place sleeve back in pile
I find the task of sleeve management to be frustrating. And would rather have them all organized in such a way so that I may be able to view them, and choose them out as warranted.
What do you say is the best way to store them? (Product, Idea to make, anything)
Edit 1: A limitations I have is that I cannot install anything permanently to the apartment. 😖
What you need is a metal rod suspended by magnets. You can put all the chokers on it like hoops on a pole. Then you can just take from one end and put back at the other. Or sort through them I suppose.
maybe just a rope/chain, put them in that and then just make it little and to the drawer
idk if I explained myself
Sounds like you’d benefit from one of those large keyrings.
They open up at a single point, so in the morning you can see which one you want, move the entire circle of chokers around so that one is next to the opening, open it up, and grab the choker.
Also, no installation to the walls.

What about a pet giraffe?
As I have sworn to upholed the constitution of the USA & NYS, I am unable to partake in illegal activities such as owning a giraffe.
Someone else has already commented about giraffe plushies though.
Can we see some of the collection please?
I’m sick right now and I read this as I have 100 chickens how do I store them.
I thought it said chonkers and I thought they were asking some theoretical intellectual question about 100 obese cats
Hopefully you feel better soon!
Personally the best way to store 100 chickens is to let them be free in a field!
Are the chokers somewhat adjustable to fit different size necks? Do you have any dislike or fear of giraffes? If yes and no, you might look into getting some giraffe dolls that are firm enough to basically wear and display the chokers and ease your selection.
You could even slightly decorate the giraffes to help in sorting them, supposing the wearing of chokers wasn’t enough for your tastes.
I can see a dragon also fitting the requirement for people that suffer from giraffophobia.
Yeah, and the toys sold at bad-dragon.com are plenty firm
I love the idea of storing them on giant dildos.
Oo, This is smart! They’d also fit into my plushie collection!
Do you have any dislike or fear of giraffes? If yes and no, you might look into getting some giraffe…
Okay, I’m interested…
…dolls
Oh.
Step One: acquire one-hundred human necks using hatchet and/or hacksaw
Your username does match.
This would work, if I had more hanger room 😭
Maybe something like this?
Ooo, This is super effective! I’ll see the costs and more.
If you’re a sewer, you can probably convert some fabric and a cloths hanger into something similar.
100 girlfriends
Sadly I max out emotionally at two girlfriends, three if I have the extra energy.
Maybe you need something like a motorized tie rack.
I like that idea!
Get some cheap carabiners and use one for each style/color/whatever.
I’m not fully sure how this would work, can you elaborate?
The carabineers would function similar to a keychain, and you can use multiple carabineers to enforce organization.
You could hammer 100 little tack/nails into a board and hang them vertically. They’d be a lot longer vertically then they are wide, so you could do like 25 across x 4 down. You could maybe even still keep the plastic sleeves on them.
Or find a big donut shaped pillow, with the same diameter as a neck, and put all them on it?
The handy-person answer.
Assuming that my chokers are maybe 30 cm long with the chain, 2 cm spacing per choker, 25 chokers per row, 2 cm gap between choker vertical space.
Dimensions would be 126 cm tall and 50 cm wide.
Manageable, would need to find a place for it.
I’d suggest the back of a closet door or similar!
This is essentially my idea as well. Hang em by the clasps. Even without permanently affixing something, a few quick-assembled rods with hooks, held in place with a suitable amount of command strips or similar no-damage hanger.
Pro tip: don’t hang stuff by the clasp. The weight can stretch them out if they are made of junk metal (most are).
Instead, hang them by the ring/chain the clasp clasps onto. You can use upside down earring hooks to string them up if you have a pack of spare, otherwise small head finish nails can usually accommodate the chains.
Oh nice! I don’t wear any necklaces or similar jewelry, but I’ll keep that in mind.
What about taking numbered pictures of them and categorizing them like in a library?
So you can browse the photos and find them based on what sleeve number you’ve assigned it to.
While this is smart, it only delays the issue to after I’ve selected.
I would still need to store them, but now numerically!
