Cloth storage

I am so excited that I figure out a way to store some of my fabric and use these containers. I won these containers last August at Staples and I have not known what to do with them. It occurred to me on Saturday to put my material in them. Woohoo! I just love getting a good idea. Although, I don't know WHY I didn't think of it earlier!
The first box has material with less than 1 yard. It also has a lid that goes on top. I think it was intended for photo or CD storage. The bigger container (which is really a magazine box) has a yard or more in each piece of fabric.
It really helps me to see what colors I have.

  1. Those boxes look like a great idea for storing fabric, and you can't beat free. They are good looking, too.
    Thanks for visiting my blog, and for your nice words. The soup was good.

  5. Now that's a good idea. I've got fabric stored everywhere in all kinds of containers. I recognise at least one of your fabrics as being one I have a few scraps of.
