how to properly store fur trim
If you don't want to take the expense to store them, either because it's not worth it to you or the value of the fur is not worth the storage cost (or your coats are just sentimental as you say, or both), here's the best thing to do: 1  Hang the coat on a wooden hanger. 2  Cover the coat in cotton, not dry-cleaning bags or garment bags. Fur has to breathe; I had sheets made into clothing bags for my coats, which keeps the dust out but allows the coats to breathe. Hangs them in a dark, dry place. You're opting out of a humidity controlled storage facility, so choose the next best place.
