U never have enough storage for sure. I have two files cabinets, the short ones u can get at walmart or goodwill, etc. I keep all my patterns filed in them with folders hanging files in front. This is so perfect and plenty of room. I put a piece of formica on top of them and oola, u have an extra table surface too. Nice area to sit at and look at the patterns and decide, or even to layout the material u want to use and put together, lots of use. Let me know if u can use this idea, think everyone could actually........also, in the cabinets u can store your secret projects so no one can see them, u have a lock as well.....lol
