Default Helmet storage

Where and how do you guys and gals store your helmet after your ride do you leave it in the garage or in the house? I am looking for ideas on how to store my helmet and some gear after a ride.

Bookshelf in the bedroom, up high,,,keeps the grandson's hands off. Crawly things can get into it in the garage (not that I have a garage).

Mine is usually left in the garage, but any place you would store clothes is fine, dry and ventilated

My intention is to store it in my helmet bag in my closet, but the reality is I store it on a chair in the dining room.

In the den closet with the rest of my riding gear. All in one place, out of the way. Not having a garage, I like it to be warm when I put it on. The bike lives in an unheated shed.

My Honda sits next to my scooter which has a hardshelled locking case attached. It goes there.

My hats sit in various places.
A few of the expensive ones that I rarely wear are in their bags on a shelf or in a cabinet in the garage. Half a dozen that I don't wear at all anymore are hanging from hooks in the ceiling of the garage. Of the ones that I wear often (when I do wear a helmet) two stay in the tour pack on the Venture, and the dual sport helmet sits on the seat of the KLR or on the work bench.
