I think a bag would be more annoying than my hoops, thats just me

but I dont have one so I don't really know, would it be worth it for me to invest in one? I don't hoop with adult hoops anymore so I'm not carrying around a HUGE hoop

I'm a shorty so even though I'm new my hoops aren't the giant ones, but I still feel like I'm going to need one because I'll be on the road constantly. I won't really have a proper "house" in terms of what most people consider a home, lol. My main concern is keeping them safe and protected from getting all scuffed up since they will be traveling in a cargo trailer most of the time. I agree that a bag will probably be more annoying to carry then just putting your hoops over your shoulder but it seems like a decent solution? *Sigh*...sometimes it's annoying to not live in one place for an extended period of time!

I can't speak or offer any advice about a bag...BUT...have you considered a strap? a simple velcro strap can just help keep the hoops under control...its super cheap and you can make something cute/decorative if you want to add some flare!! although it won't help with avoiding scuffs...then again not much will ;-)

I like the strap idea just for when we are settled down in between moves just to carry them around, but it wouldn't be enough during the traveling. Imagine your beautiful hoops bouncing around in a cargo trailer jam packed full of assorted circus stuff for hours on end...haha slightly scary.

I'm actually going to do an article closer to Christmas on using Wreath bags. I just got one the other day, it's 24 inches and fits my minis and my collapsible hoops.

Here's a few I found online: The work for the folding collapsible hoops.
