I like alot of these ideas. Currently, I store my big square-ups and my long 6" ruler behind my piano. Yep...you read that correctly. Unfortunately, my piano is downstairs and my sewing room is upstairs. :( And now, it is a mystery...I have no clue where my 6x30 ruler is. Makes using my rotary cutter a little difficult. I am guessing that I have taken that ruler upstairs and it has slipped behind something. I figure one of these days it will turn up...probably right after I break down and buy a new ruler.
