10 Solutions for Storing Fabric...


10 Creative and unique ways to store fabric! 


A few months ago, I finally organized the office closet into my dream craft closet.  It took some planning, but after a long trip to IKEA I was able to get enough storage items to organize all my craft, DIY and sewing supplies.  While planning how I was going to layout the closet, I searched Pinterest for inspiration and found some great fabric storage solutions that I wanted to share.

  3. All of these are for small pieces of fabric. I usually buy 5-10 yards at a time, so none of these would work for me, but I think they are great ideas for people that have such tiny cuts.

    2. I keep mine on those cardboard bolt forms they come on from the factory. I get them for free from my local fabric shop. Unless it is a BIG piece, I will store two pieces quadruple folded on each one. They come in different sizes, though, so figure out what works for you - one size or whatever you can get.
