    Default Upcycled Quilt Storage

    For a while I have been looking for something to store finished quilts in. I wanted something that would fit under my TV and have room for Cable/TV/Netflix stuff. I found this oak entertainment center at a thrift store for $20 and it work great for my needs. The glass door even have real leaded glass doors. and I still have one shelf for more quilts.

    Nice display! I love it when something can be upcycled instead of cluttering up the dump.

    I love going to thrift stores but very seldom bring home anything but fabrics anymore. However, in the past I have picked up all kinds of things and upcycled them. (Before the word upcycle was being used). I was looking at the lovely stained glass windows someone has posted on the board which reminded me of old windows I used to paint with the glass paint and the stripes you can (still?) buy for the stained glass look. My sister-in-law still has hers hanging in her kitchen and it is at least 12 years old. I guess she really likes it.
