Hi Jeseryn!
You asked such a good question. I guess the way you store your decks depends on your personality type.
I like to keep my decks in the original boxes with the LWB and extra cards. I put the LWB between the deck and extra cards to keep the deck separate.
For the two decks I use mostly, I wrap each deck in a rectangle of cotton fabric then keep it in its own bag. I use the piece of cotton as a spread cloth. It's very convenient that way. Just pick up the bag, and go. The deck is in the bag with its own spread cloth. The cloth also protects the box from wear and tear. I keep them in a dresser drawer dedicated to tarot.
I like to use the little Japanese draw string bags that come in various sizes. They are made well and usually have cheerful pictures of auspicious animals or plants. I keep the cards in their boxes because I feel it 'protects' the cards from energy that might seep through a bag. Also, I think I may be paranoid of a card accidentally falling out of a bag.
I don't have a large collection yet, but if I did (say over 50 or so)... I would store them in their boxes with the LWB and everything, with no cloth or bag. Just stack them side by side on a bookshelf or in a cabinet for easy reference.
