The old Castlebar playspace was rather dark and I got tired of fumbling around for toys in a dark bag. Since I am a talented woodworker, I made a fitted wooden case to carry my impliments in. It is a huge improvement over a bag, however, I am not one to carry 1/2 the inventory of Mr. S to a playspace as some do so my needs for space are a bit less.

My next evolution of the case will have built in legs so that it will also serve as a table so that I don't have to bend over to retrieve my implements.

since i have a kid, at home we keep everything in a stacked Craftsman tool box. The many drawers and locking capability is perfect for organization and to keep everything safely stowed when not in use.

we have duffels for travel (with labelled zip-locs for each type of item) and a smallish one for necessities if we're just doing some play outside the home for the evening.

Wow, I feel woefully under-equipped. All my stuff fits in a small, sturdy cardboard box that I decoupaged to make it look fancy.

I have a tip, though: whenever you buy shoes or electronics or whatever and get one of those silica gel-packs, tuck it in your toy box. The last thing you want is your leather gear getting mildewed.

at home, my gear lives in a nice cedar chest. For going out, I use a baseball bag. The long part (where the bats go) is perfect for my canes, the bag part holds floggers, rope, safety kit, etc.

My violet wand is in a separate case and I also have a separate fire kit.

I use a leather duffel bag when I'm carrying them to a play party and at home I keep them in an army missile ammo case.
Kinda like this, but the US version: www.surplusandoutdoors.com/shop....html

I lucked out on a beautiful (and huge) blue train trunk that slided under the bed. It was left by someone moving out of the dorms.
It's big enough to hold everything I have now, and it has enough space that I can continue collecting toys for some time and not run out.

Makes me happy to think what it will be like when it's finally full.

It also has a satisfyingly loud creak when I open it.

We usually bring a small suitcase w/wheels and a tripod bag for our longer toys. At home, many of my tools hang on the bedroom wall on a wooden clothes rack that has triskels engraved on it. It has 5 metal pegs sticking out and a few hooks on the bottom for other items. The tripod bag is made of durable cloth & accommodates longer items such as my canes, crop, spreader bar and such. It can also handle a few floggers, slapper, and a good sized paddle. It has a shoulder strap and can expand or contract with a circular zipper for longer or shorter items. It's about 6" in diameter and about 3' long & can expend an additional 8". It doesn't look kinky at all out in 'nilla land :) I have silky cloth tubes to carry my floggers in. It helps them keep from getting their tails entwined. They are long and can also be used for bondage or just fun silky sensations. Now that we're traveling on motorcycles more and more, it's a challenge to carry longer & heavier items to motels and kinky camps along with our other camp or motel travel necessities.

I use a nylon equipment bag. Essentially soft luggage.

At home, I generally hang the soft impact toys. Most other toys go in drawers.

For travel to parties, I'm partial to ropes bags. As in, bags made for technical climbers' ropes. The one I've most recently begun to use has a 5' x 4' integral ground cloth for the ropes (or my dungeon stuff), which one wraps over everything. Then it all can slide into the bag part, which cinches down with 3 means and has backpack straps. I can then carry heavy loads without blowing out my wrists. And it still can be wrestled into most lockers. I love the thing. Odds-n-ends inside are in ziplocs or lingerie zipping bags. If I put floggers inside, I slide them (usually two at a time) into inexpensive girls' legwarmers (love some of the hot pink sayings on some!) which keeps them from getting messed up, and keeps them organized.

Canes go into a $10 expanding black plastic 4 inch wide blueprints tube.

At home, I try to hang all leather soft items like floggers from 'biners on hangers. I live in a moist climate, and am terrified the leather will get mildewed.

I use two different bags.....when I need to bring alot of stuff rope/toys/wand etc I use a hard shelled golf travel bag. The kind people use to bring golf clubs on airplanes. It's nice in that it locks as well. I have outfitted the inside with a little storage area for small stuff like clamps and hooks on either side to hang floggers.

For small parties or when I just need to bring rope I use a three fold travel suitcase. Carryon sized and lots of great places to store things.

Depending on how much equipment you're hauling around....

We use a black faux crocodile skin wine box...the kind that is rectangular (holds 1 bottle, 2 glassed, and the wine key). It looks like a little briefcase, has style, and a red lining to boot.

For storage: extra large carabiners (you know, those climbers gadgets). They are perfect for all the toys that have a handstrap.
