Whoever built our home has some great ideas..  Each of our bedrooms has it's own linen closet in addition to clothes closets.  So storing each room's bedding is never a problem.

That had to be designed by a woman! I'd love that feature. I've never seen that done in a home before, but what a great idea. I'm jealous!!!

I purchased several of the VPH ottomans. I have several of the smaller set of two, and a couple of the bigger ones. They are great for storing the throws, off season.

For blankets, I have a closet at the end of our hallway in the upstairs. It isn't very big, but I think was probably designed as a coat closet. I just stack all my blankets, extra quilts, and extra kitchen rugs in there. And it is completely filled from floor to ceiling. I have pared down a number of times, but each time there seems to be more than when I started.

Throws are stored in each room, either in the closet or some piece of furniture.  Extra quilts, blankets and decorative pillows are stored in a large closet under the stairs.

Down blankets, when not on the beds, are stored in our only linen closet, located in the hall area, along with extra sheets, pillows, shams, and quilts.  

All extra throws not tossed over the sofas go in this piece of furniture, which is used as an end table in my living room.  It opens from the front for easy access.  It was from the Linda Dano Home line that QVC offered.

We have a large linen closet and all our blankets, bed linens and throws are stored there.  I'd love to have linen storage in each bedroom like @Perkup has in her home, great idea.

@SHOPR  I love that.  I wish Linda Dano was still coming to QVC.  She had some great items.

Everything goes in the linen closet.

Linen and/or other closet, plus my old Lane cedar chest at the foot of my bed..

If necessary, I would also use an under-the-bed thingy.

BTW, chests & trunks are a great value since they're 'multi-use':

for storage +  as a coffee/other table.

And as mentioned, quilt racks are helpful too.

I have throws, blanket, & quilts -

most in natural breathable fibers like cotton, wool, & down.

Forgot to mention that when you live in a small or tiny place, furniture that does double (or triple) duty really rocks.

For example, I have a platform storage bed, with drawers built into the sides as well as the bottom.

It's more pragmatic than attractive, I guess, but it's priceless when it comes to storage.  8)

Blankets go on a shelf in the walk in closet.  

Throws used around the tv go in a storage closet in the kitchen that is the under stair area.  I have a shelf in there with cookbooks, family photo albums and the laundry basket of toys and puzzels for the grand children.

When they were just tiny, every time they came they'd open "their door" and slide out their basket!
