I have seen all the great pics of everyone organization their sewing rooms, too, and I caught the bug. I am 67 and I doubt if I will be keeping my stash for more than 20 years, so I am using regular cardboard to put all my fabric on. I couldn't believe the change it made in my stash, and I can see what I have. It is amazing. There is a black batik that has a hint of blue that I have wanted 3 or 4 times over the past couple of months. I looked for it and couldn't find it. However, when I did my reorganization, I found over 4 yards of it. I keep my fabrics in a closed cabinet so I don't have any problem with dust. I also have some fabric in plastic bins and I am not going to worry about whether my fabric will be all right 20 years from now.
