A large O ring, hung on an S hook, works for me. Very little expenditure. Of course, I have a few with no holes at the top. They are stacked in an in-coming, out-going metal thing. Available at any Staples or Office Depot. Anyone still have toast racks? Would that work?
OOPS!!!!!! |
I have large rulers hanging on the walls of my sewing room and the small ones in the ruler holder I bought at Joann's.

The peg board also has hooks and hangers that I use to store my scissors, rotary cutters and other hangable items. Saves space. |
I use letter holders/desk file holders that I pick up at garage sales very cheap. They work perfect all my rulers long or square.

I have a heavy wooden letter holder. I put them in it and place them in a woven straw tote (which stands up by its self). The height of the tote provides additional support. You can use scrap wood to fashion something like a letter holder. Just make sure it is heavy.

enjoyed this thread as need a storage solution for my rulers and really dont like any more on my table so will check out thrift stores. Do like the cabinet that is handmade.

Check out thrift stores. I found a little cabinet with slots on the side that were probably made for magazines but my rulers fit in nicely.

So, this is what is hanging over my cutting table... works perfectly!!! :thumbup: |
I have 2 of the slotted ruler holder that I got at a quilt shop and my long rulers I put in a tall basket, I think the basket may have been made to store toilet tissues, not sure, but it's about 22 inches tall and 6" around, had to put weights in the bottom. My real small rulers, I put on a ring and s hook and hang them.
