Course it's a little messy right now. And, I really need to put the rest up there!

Any thoughts. Dh is doing everything he can to help me with the sewing room reorganization and I appreciate it so much but now I am to a point where I think I know best. Just thought I would ask for input to figure out if I am right or if I should listen to him. I have one of those white cabinet things with the doors (sell for about80 to 100 dollars) and I love it. I want at least one more. Help with your advice, please.
WOW! That doesn't look messy to me. When you have fabric on shelves in your sewing room, how do you keep the light from fading the fabric?
