Which would bring you the most happiness? Seeing your fabric or seeing your S and P shaker collection?

You have a china hutch just like mine! Funny too is that I have the same plant around it. If you think you would like your fasbric to be on display for you, I sure would give it a try. I like to see what I have easily also.

Here is an option: I am a collector of salt & pepper shakers. I have most of them in a hutch in my kitchen. I'm considering packing my salt & pepper shakers up and using the space for fabric. Should I do it? Or just live in tubs?

I use tubs but dont like them . I prefer to see my fabric on shelves.

Time for a change.... I packed up lots of things and don't regret it. Soon I'll be packing up some others things and they will be out the door. I think you'll like looking at your fabrics..

I would.

I say, take the fabric out of the tubs, put the fabric on your table, take one set of salt shakers and wrap them up in the fabric...put that back into the tub....Seal the tub up REALLY REALLY GOOD with packing tape and the such...put an ADDRESS label on it saying....

There, that solved your problem and solved 2 problems for me......it will build my fabric stash and add to MY salt and pepper collection. :) And that means you can start building you a new stash. :)

You won't have to dust the fabric. I say go for it.

You can turn the tubs up on end (bottom toward the back) and stack your fabrics....works for me

I would so use the hutch for your fabric :!: :!: :!:

Leave the salt and pepper shakers alone and make low shelf units under your window. Get those wonderful boards off the sales list here and wind your fabric around them and store. If you have no money for the cabinets still get the fabric boards, wind the fabric around them and store them upright under the window. All they need is a little organizing.
