    Default "Wal-mart milk crate" sewing room wall.

    Get organized the cheap way. Bought my milk crates for about $4 each and got my sewing room on its way to recovery. My husband loved it as he didn't have to build anything! I posted this before, but I think I had it in the wrong place.

    I have started using milk crates as well. I have most of my stash in black wire mesh 15" cubicles which I love - but since I am moving I have started the crates for books, fabric and shoes. My color preference is black like yours. I am finding I like my fabric on black - the black fades to the background and I do not notice it. The cubes keep things a bit more organized and stuff does not get lost. In my new life I will be a milk crate person. Easy to organize and easy to move around. And you really do not see them.
