- **Drawer Dividers**: If you have a dedicated drawer for your bow tie collection, use drawer dividers. These dividers keep your bow ties neatly separated, preventing them from getting tangled or damaged. Look for dividers specifically designed for accessories like bow ties, or use small boxes or organizers as makeshift dividers.

- Hanging Hooks or Racks: Hanging your bow ties on hooks or racks is convenient, especially if you want easy access to your collection. A dedicated bow tie hanger or rack allows you to hang them individually, preventing crushing or folding. This method works well for delicate fabric bow ties.

2. Proper Folding and Rolling:
- Start with a clean and ironed tie.

- Hold the rolled tie and place it in a drawer or organizer.
