It does look like a quilt shoppe, I'm envious. Nice fabrics too. Thank you for sharing.

They are acid free cardboard boards that originally made to use by comic book/magazine collectors that are used to keep the comic book/magazine flat. You can view them on Amazon.

I've put my most frequently used stash on boards (blenders and what I call my "rainbow" stash) and really love it! It is so easy to see what I have and so easy to maintain. I'm totally sold on it. Just looking at your beautiful fabrics makes me happy for you!

My room is approximately 20 x 32. The bookcases are the standard type you can get at Mernards etc that you put together. Easy to put together - I did it myself with the doggies watching wondering what I was doing with a screw driver.
