What do you keep your Thoth in?


I've been looking at some bags to keep my more special decks in and I just can't seem to find something I think my Thoth either deserves or is suited towards!

Bags, Boxes, Wraps... Share your Thoth covers/protectors with me!

I keep mine in a bag that was a gift from an AT friend, and then that inside a paper mâché box made by another AT friend. It lives on top of a small bookshelf in my reading room, with some other treasures.

I keep a trimmed large Thoth in a black padded silk case from Tarot Totes. The smallest on they make (medium) is too tall for this deck so I had to modify it with an iron-on velcro strip. They might be willing to modify the velcro position for you.

I keep mine in the original box. When that wears out, I think the Thoth deserves one of those regally elegant Crown Royal bags (the size used for the 375mL bottles).

All of my Thoth decks reside in their original boxes. My regular everyday Thoth has a zippered pouch that I made special for it with cotton yarn (crochet).

Can't see the pouch too well, but you can see that the box is covered with that clear contact paper stuff that they cover paperbacks at the library with. And of course, kitties and flowers.

Hopefully, that will help keep the box nice for more years to come. The other Thoths are unadorned. And quite jealous I think.

Original two piece boxes, both mine. I had to get two because the first " mass" edition is mildly disputed, so I got both.... original boxes are important to me.

One is in a blue silk LoS tarot bag with The Holy Grail Chalice on it, and sits at the foot of my Altar
(I purchased it at Glastonbury, at courtyard books, and it did not come with a box, and I thought the bag was very appropriate, anyhow)

and my other one is in its origonal box

I treated mine to the Hieroglyph bag from Tarot Sulis. They are handmade to suit the size of your deck if you let her know which one it's for. I chose a dark turquoise silk lining.
