    Need some help lovely readers.

    I can no longer put my jeans in my shelves inside the wardrope as a certain cat sometimes will sleep there.
    I am looking for a storage solution to keep in my room that has a lid.
    I am thinking something the length of a pair of jeans folded in half if that makes sense?
    any ideas?  Ta  :)

    How about a trouser hanger in a suit bag? Arg0s do these bags and these hangers - I like the hangers because you can swing each hanger rail round to a different angle to make it easier to load and unload them
