I found a pretty white 4 ft shelf about 6 inches wide with a rod right below it at a garage sale. The rod was removeable. My DH put some cup hooks into the rod about 8 in apart. Then I bought some large metal rings (about 4 inches or so) that can be unlocked (with the snap hook). I slipped a few my cutting rulers on each of these these hooks all across the rod. They are all in plain view...all I have to do is choose the ring, remove my ruler, and put it back up. Plus, I have the top shelf for storage of other sewing necessities....worked great for me.
