So, "totes out in the garage" is not an ideal form of doll clothing storage. This summer at Costume College I took a wonderful class by Heather Dill-Tullo about how to customize the interior of a wheeled steamer trunk to be proper costumer's luggage, and I've been on a lookout at thrift stores ever since. I'm not paying $90 at Home Depot for a trunk! And a month or so ago I found one, in good condition, for $15. A half-inch dowel was about $3, and a packet of 3/4" #7 screws was $2. Which turned into this:
I have some adhesive hooks coming so I can hang a few more things on the interior of the lid, and some luggage feet since currently the back of the trunk, due to having wheels, is not flush on the ground, but the lid is.
And I'll keep my eyes open for another trunk or two since this is by all means not all my doll clothes....
