JoneZ Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 Now that my collection is getting up there, it's really cluttering a corner of my house, but I don't know where to really put them. I was thinking about some kind of shelf system, something that is easy to access, but keeps the kites off the ground, out of the corner, yet keeps them displayed -- like a gun rack (reminiscent of waynes world huh? lol) or something similar? Im interested to see what others have devised to display or store their kites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guru4tru Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 Hi JoneZ, I suppose you already saw my kite caddy, but I'll post it again. I put another shorter tube on top today that now carries all my spare rods and misc. stuff. So, now everything I own, having to do with kites, is all within this water and air tight, unbreakable caddy! (I like being organized...helps when one gets old--like the names my wife put of things like "refrigerater", "table", "chair",etc..!)

kiteking Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 I use a couple of overhead racks in the garage similar to the picture I used to keep all my kite bags stacked together in a storage closet until a pack rat decided it wanted to chew through some on the bags. Luckily, the kite bags were repairable and the only kite damaged was a small bite from a Starflake, it did destroy a windsock and my motorcycle leathers. Now I keep large tubs with our Xmas stuff on the shelves, the kite bags (6) go long ways behind the tubs and my stacks lay across the top of the tubs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Barresi Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 I'd post a picture of our kite room, but it's a dreadful mess. Small bedroom with closet, does nicely, at least until we have a kid or two. (no, no, nothing brewing yet - just saying) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoneZ Posted January 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 I can't count (literally) how many times people have asked Mary Beth and I if we were pregnant yet. Maybe Im just wierd like that (or a stuffy Canadian), but I think that's a pretty personal question. lol About your guest room, you'd have to drag me out of there kicking and screaming,, keep that in mind if I ever go to your place. lol "Lock Up The Kites! JoneZ is Coming!" ...keep them secret,,, keep them safe.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
