I've tried hooks and the scarves fall off. I've tried a drawer and forgotten about the scarves at the bottom of it. I've tried shelves and they've become disarrayed within weeks. Naturally, then, I was thrilled to find this quick fix from Juniper Moon Farm.
Frustrated by the same problems I've had, Susan had the idea to try a towel bar. She asked her farm manager to add one to his list on a trip to Lowe's, and he found chrome one for $5. Voilà! — an easy and elegant solution. Now I'm just envious I didn't think of it myself.

Cute idea. I just have one of those wooden hangers with holes across it. It works, but my best scarves are tucked in the closet, instead of on display.
AT has a post on something like this where a reader did somewhat the same thing. Nice to see it again as a reminder.
That is such a good idea :)
I use this for my pashminas, which I don't like all wrinkly. Yes it's more than $5, but it keeps them wrinkle-free, off the floor, and nicely organized in my closet.

I collect scarves. The best solution I've found is an over-the-door shoe organizer, the fabric kind with pockets for each shoe.

It keeps wrinkles to a minimum, and I can easily see what I have.
Love the towel bar idea!
I second using a shoe bag, with clear plastic holders that fold down flat when empty. I have mine on a wreath hook hanging over the back of the coat closet door.
I hang my scarves on the towel rack in my bathroom, where I do my makeup and put on accessories. (of course, this leaves me nowhere for towels...)
I use the scarf hanger KOMPLEMENT from IKEA (http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/70108912/) and a pant hanger for the heavier ones I dont want wrinkled. I like this because you can see it and her collection looks lovely.
I have a ton of scarves and often would wear not some becasue I could not see them. Used three towel bars. Now I not only can see my scraves but I have a pretty color arrangement on the entire wall from top to bottom.
cute idea!

Is there a reason why you couldn't just tie them along the bottom of a pants hanger instead of having to install a towel rod for this?
@DHW, I use the pants hanger solution -- four, actually, because I have so many scarves -- and keep them hung within easy reach of my full length mirror. Honestly, I really dislike the solution because it's sloppy-- the scarves slide all over the place, and I have to knot the short ones. I've been too cheap to upgrade to a hanger with loops or holes, but the individual spot for each scarf really keeps everything tidy. I like this towel bar idea, too ... note to self for when I re-org the closet!
I put my scarves in a basket that I keep in my expedit. Each scarf or pashmina gets folded over a few times and then rolled to keep them from wrinkling, and I can easily see each scarf. I store my tights the same way, in a separate basket. It works perfectly for me, though I like this idea as well!
Nothing better than showing the same photo. Twice.
I use a hanger and loop the scarves just like above. Been doing that for 30 years and never had to put a hole in a door. Carry On!!!
I use a hanging shoe organizer to store all of my winter scarves and mittens. I roll up the scarves and can easily see what is in each little cubby.
I use a fuzzy tie hanger. I got a two-pack for, I don't know, $5 but my husband only has enough ties to partly fill one hanger. My scarves go on the other one. They don't slide or fall off, each has its own spot, and I can see them all. And I don't like knotting them like that, the knot can mess up a scarf you don't wear often enough.
