Caboodle! Space Saving Tie Racks

Truth? Just about all tie racks save space simply because most don’t take up much to begin with. So, in this case, it’s all really about function, design and personal preference. Would you prefer one that’s carousel style? Would it be easiest to mount it on a wall or hang it on a closet rod? Or would you prefer one that mounts and extends for convenience sake?

The More You Know…

• Carousel tie racks. This would include the Twirl a Tie. My general thoughts are that they save the most space and are the most practical of all choices. A small circle that holds a heap of ties that goes round and round will likely save a lot more space than its counterparts. But again, it’s all about what’s right for you!
• Battery-operated tie racks. I didn’t include them. Why? Because I’m partial to manual and because consumers tend to dislike them a little more. All in all, I didn’t see a need for a battery-operated one when a manual one would do the job equally well, if not better.
• Wood peg tie racks. Sometimes the pegs come out. I’ve read a few complaints regarding them slipping out. However, am I wrong in thinking that this is a problem that could be easily solved by gluing the peg in with a bit of gorilla glue or wood glue?
• Drawer tie rack. Be sure to notate measurements. I couldn’t quite figure out if this goes with a specific closet set. I looked but couldn’t find anything. However, honestly I need to do deeper research. Yet, even if you don’t have the closet kit, if a specific one is indeed on the market, then take note of the measurements of the drawer. If it works with the dimensions of something you have then there’s nothing stopping you from getting it!
