Hi Nelle and all,

I don't have much flat surface available in my 'studio.' I also didn't want them on the wall, as that is space to hang my quilting. So I use 2 of those round belt type holders to hang my larger rulers on the side of a bookcase in the studio.

I also have a portable cutting station which is usally in my living room. There I have one fabric ruler holder and
I drilled 3 holes in the long back of the cutting station [actually a folding kitchen prep station] and used nuts and bolts to secure: 1 fabric ruler holder and then then the other two just hold the rulers I most frequently use.

I do have a drawer in a small chest where I store the really small rulers I don't use often.
