The peg board is a great way to go. I also bought a clear, over-the-door shoe holder. I put MANY tools (not rulers) in each of those clear pockets. Since I have 3 sewing machines and a serger, I even place the different foot controls and cords in those pockets, when they are not in use. My sewing room is small....can't have but one machine up at a time. My pockets are all FULL!! Wish I had another door, for another one!! Just a thought!
