Where are you keeping your masks?

This might only make sense to people who are also very particular about sorting and organising things.

I’m gathering quite the stash of reusable cloth masks, I’ll use 3-4 during a work day (have to wear one most of the day) and obvs for out and about, transport, shops etc.

Where to keep the main supply waiting to be used?
Do they get their own section in the underwear drawer?
Should they get a basket alongside hats/scarfs/gloves etc near the front door?
Someplace else?
Already have 2 little pouches, one in my bag that comes to work, and one in the car, to have a few handy where I need them, and then tend to screw them up in my bag/pocket when used to go in the laundry when I get home.

Weird conundrum to have.

I have a coat hanger that has little clips on, meant for underwear. I have one hanging above the washing machine so clean ones go on it to dry, then people grab them as they go out. With 6 of us we have a pretty good supply of reusable ones now, 5yr old has a ziplock bag for hers because she has to wear it as she goes in and out of school.

I crocheted a bowl for our clean ones.

Ours are in the medicine cupboard. I think my reasoning had something to do with the fact that they help you stay healthy!

I have hooks for coats and a unit behind my front door (my flat entrance is just a hallway and the only storage space is a narrow alcove behind the door) with 3 drawers where we leave anything we need to take with us - bottom drawer is for shoes, middle one is seasonal things (sunglasses/caps/umbrellas/hats/gloves etc) and the top one is reusable shopping bags and a basket where we always drop our house keys. I've just added a basket with reusable masks that I keep ready in little ziplock bags and theres also a couple of packs of disposables for emergencies or to just pop into my bag to replenish the ones I always keep there for the odd time I need an extra or two.

In the kitchen drawer with clean tea towels

Cloth bag hanging on hook by front door for clean ones, carrier bag by washing machine for used.

A small stash in a sandwich bag in my handbag. The rest in a basket in the bathroom, ready for anyone in the family to grab.

In my underwear drawer. I also keep a packet of disposable ones in my car.
