    I put hooks on the side of my table and they hang there (each one has a hole in it)

    I have a slotted board that I bought off ebay. Attaches to the wall, holds a number of slots and has three hooks on the bottom of the board that holds the rotary cutter and scissor. Mine cost about 12. and I love it.

    Storage for rulers, squares, scissors, and other misc.
    Of course you can make it bigger or smaller.
    I love the hooks because I can move them around as needed.

    I use a plastic hanger and the notebook holder rings you can buy cheap and put one ruler on each ring attached to the hanger and hang in my closet in the room I sew in. Now is a good time to get those holders I got some at Wal Mart the other night in the school section. $2-3.00. Sue

    For my smaller rulers I use a belt hanger I bought at Walmart ($2-$4). They fit on the circle by the holes. I have them hanging from a shelf in my sewing room
