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. ๐
Maybe you need something like a motorized tie rack.

Get 101 dalmatians? You mean dog collars right?
You could hammer 100 little tack/nails into a board and hang them vertically. Theyโd 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.
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: donโt 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.
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 wasnโt enough for your tastes.
I can see a dragon also fitting the requirement for people that suffer from giraffophobia.
