So, you’re starting to accumulate a sex toy collection—or you’re trying to find a secret hiding place so your roommates or family members won’t ever stumble upon your favorite toys. Sure, little satin bags can provide cover, but having a bunch of little black drawstring bags lying around isn’t exactly the most discreet way to hide your toy collection.
Don’t worry. Your secret is safe with us. Here’s how to hide sex toys while keeping them within reach when the mood strikes.
Why You Should Store Your Sex Toys
Nothing kills the mood like needing to stop and rummage through your drawers, search under the bed, or scour your closet for your favorite toys. You want an easy place to access everything you need when the mood strikes—and that’s where your sex toy storage solution will be your MVP.
Even if you’re don’t give AF about hiding your toys, a dedicated sex toy storage system can help you avoid throwing sticky, slimy toys into lint-filled drawers. If you really want to get the most out of your toys, it’s important to clean them before and after use and store them properly (different materials should be stored separately). Basically, unless you’re cool with inserting sex toys into your body that have been collecting dust and lint (hint: you shouldn’t be), storage is key.
Finding the Best Hiding Spots for Your Toy Collection
To keep your favorite toys in optimum condition, keep them in the silk bag or container they came in. If you’d prefer something more discreet, invest in some decorative storage boxes or bags. This way, you’ll be able to display your sex toys in plain sight—and your nosy roommates will never know. And if you’re planning to enjoy some pleasure on the road, all you have to do is tuck your storage bag into your checked bag before the trip.
If you are wondering where to hide sex toys for a more extensive collection, opt for a toy chest. From your dual-action vibrator to your lube collection, you’ll have room to spare. Most sex toy chests look like makeup trunks, with different compartments to stash different types of toys.
A toy chest can fit nicely under your bed, or you can tuck it away in the closet. And even though it might be a little less convenient than the bedside table, it can be fun perusing your options. For even more privacy, choose a lockable chest so you won’t have to worry about prying eyes. And if you want to go all out, some sex toy chests come fully equipped with USB charging ports, so everything is ready to go when you are.
If you’re dealing with bigger toys, say sex swings or wedges, even a toy chest might not do the trick. In this case, try investing in a large suitcase. Bigger suitcases make the perfect in-plain-sight hiding spots for bigger toys that are often trickier to hide. After all, who’s going to look through an empty suitcase? For bonus points (and to be even more conspicuous), add a few layers of clothing or books on top of your toy chest or storage bag.
How to hide sex toys and keep them charged
How can you hide sex toys while keeping them charged? There’s nothing worse than a dead vibrator when you need it most. Sure, you might use some toys with batteries, and you can always borrow the TV remote batteries if you need to. But if you like a toy with power, you’ll need one that doesn’t operate on a pair of AA batteries.
If you don’t want to shell out the money for a USB-equipped lockbox, don’t worry—portable chargers are here to save the day. Portable USB chargers can help keep your toys in tip-top shape, and some chargers even charge multiple toys at once. Of course, when your portable charger isn’t charging your vibrator, it can also charge your smartphone or anything else that has a USB port. Sounds like a win-win, right?
Using Your Sex Toys Discreetly
Let’s face it: Some vibrators can be really noisy. It’s not always easy to have a passionate love affair with your vibrator with your roommates at home when your toy sounds like a motorbike. If you want to be super discreet about your self-pleasure sessions, you’ll want a whisper-quiet vibrator with different intensities to choose from.
If your tried-and-true vibrator is extra rumbly, there are a few ways to muffle the sound. For example, you might try squeezing your vibrator between your thighs or holding your vibe with a firmer hand.
If you usually lie on your back, you can also try putting a pillow beneath you to help silence the noise. If you want to spice up your self-love sesh with a different position, try placing your vibrator between you and the bed/couch/floor and grinding on it. Grinding on your vibrator is a great way to stimulate your clit for some seriously good sensations. Plus, when you’re belly-down, you can moan into your mattress.
If that’s still not enough to drown out the sound, try masturbating under a weighted blanket, or playing a TV show or music. Our favorite way to muffle the sound of a noisy vibrator? Hop in the shower and get buzzing—just make sure your vibrator is waterproof.
