Where to store extra linens
• under the bed
• at the end of the bed in a storage ottoman, trunk or bench
• in closet on hangers next to your clothes
• in a freestanding armoire or cabinet (could be in the hallway or anywhere)
• in suitcases (which are bulky and usually empty anyway)
• between the matress and the box spring.
• Beach towels can be stored separately with your bathing suits and sarongs if your linen closet space is limited.
• Blankets can be folded and spread across the end of the bed. It looks pretty and takes up less storage space.
