With your busy schedule you can't afford to worry about keeping your designer handbag germ-free... We take our handbags everywhere we go and unfortunately we can't always keep track of which surfaces they touch. Hanging them on a purse hook is the ONLY way to prevent dirt, grime, scuffs, and worst of all, bacteria, from collecting on your purse. Use one for anything you want to keep off the dirty ground:  scarves, knapsacks, sweaters, tote bag, etc.  It will work on most flat surfaces like tables in restaurants and bars, chairs and bar stools, railing, desks, and even over bathroom stall doors.  Also known as a purse valet, handbag hanger, pocketbook hook or purse holder - it can be used for more than purses.
