haribol, there has been a bit of discussion on this on one of the photos in my tribe gallery, I just thought I'd bring it out here.
reproduced below are comments from various members of this tribe, including me.
I just want to add: At the Manor, behind the singhasana's are cabinets with trays which store some of the deities jewellery, also behind the curtains on the side of the deity room are hooks from which strings of beads hang, Their Lordships outfits hang in suit bags (one for RG, one for SRLH in a room at the back, off to one side of the temple room (the door to the right of the painting of Prabhupada if you know where that is) and overflow in the sewing room, Radha Gokulananda have, I think, over 160 day outfits currently in their service.

Re: storing your deities paraphernalia

...I also have a new tool trunk from the local hardware store, in which I keep everything of theirs for bathing and dressing - it makes dressing so effieicnt having everything to hand, and thus less inconvenient for them, will post pics later. - do any of you have anything similar? how do you store outfits etc?

Haribol i was just going to start a post a bout storage for deity stuff. under my altar I have shelves to store all the bathing paraphernalia. For the jewelery I have these storage boxes from the craft store with little compartments that work great fot all the sets. here's a pic: people.tribe.net/28e4e847-...1d93633a0b I use 2 like this and one with bigger compartments (meant for spools of thread) for the bigger mukuts and flutes etc. For outfits I keep them in a plastic storage container with drawers I keep each set in a ziplock bag and the drawer is the perfect size so its almost works like a file drawer.
