    You may need to find out if your boards are acid free. This is why I used a coroplast board for my fabric. I hope everyone is having fun getting organized and seeing what fabrics you find that you may have forgotten you have :lol: :thumbup: :-D

    I used your idea, I have square cubbies so my boards are 10x10. I used foam board they worked great. My room looks so good. Thanks for the idea.

    I wish someone around here carried the plastic. I guess i could order it on line in smaller sizes. I have one more place I am going to try If it ever stops snowing now.

    Do you have a Dollar Store? I bought large poster sized foam boards that worked well.
