If you are a woman, you already know what a huge investment a leather bag can be. You have to care for it properly to ensure that it lasts you well. However, sometimes no matter what we do, we always end up making the mistakes that can cost us dearly. Do you know what is worse? You don’t even realize that you are making these mistakes!

In this article, we will tell you about some common mistakes you might be making with your leather bags and how to avoid them.

Storing All Your Bags Together

It may not be a surprise to see that you have multiple bags and you store them in one cabinet. However, putting all your bags together, including leather, can be bad for it. While your efforts are certainly lauded, you may not be doing justice to your leather bag that may be suffering at the hands of unbreathable plastic and other other synthetic materials all stowed together in a cold, dark place. You know how expensive it can be to buy leather ladies handbags in India. Therefore, it is important that you store yours in an organic bag in a dry place, away from other synthetic bags.

Hanging Them by a Screw

Did you know that hanging your leather handbag with a hook is the worst thing you can do to it? It gets pulled down by its own weight and soon starts to loose its integrity. To avoid the stretchy, misshaped look of your leather bag, it is advisable to store it in a cupboard with enough room for it.

Displaying them in the Open

We all have a collection of beautiful leather bags that we treasure. However, displaying them as trophies is actually doing them disservice. You are not only allowing dirt and dust to settle on it but also letting the expensive leather absorb all the grime. If you don’t stop doing that immediately, you may end up causing significant damage to your expensive bag.

Keeping your Bag Stuffed with Things

Every time you come back from work, do you really even think about removing all the contents from your bag and emptying your purse? Think of that liquid lipstick that fell inside the other day or the biscuit crumbs that have been collecting for days. This is not only unhygienic but also bad for your pricey leather bag to endure this treatment. While it may not be practical to empty the contents of your bag each night, be sure to do it at least twice or thrice a week so that you can keep the insides clean.

It is surprising to see that even though we pay such a heavy price for authentic leather, we do so little to preserve its look and grace. Now you know the mistakes you have been making that is costing your bag dearly. Avoid making these mistakes and make your leather bag last for years.
