take your measurements for the closet you plan on using..and see about one of those plastic shevling units to fit inside..big lots or walmarts may have something cheap too..

Do you have a used office furniture store in area or Craigslist.com? I bought a used 6 drawer legal lateral cabinet from a law firm that was closing for a very low price. It's about 5 foot wide, 5 foot tall and has 4 pull out drawers. With laterals it's nice cause they have nice big drawers and they open by folding the front up and sliding the drawer out so you can see all the fabric in that one at once. Also when you close them everything looks nice and neat and you're able to store boxes on top. Here's a picture of one. I have over 10 boxes of fabric in just that one. Since picture I bought about 8 of the decorative boxes from Joann's and store them on top.

The last time I was at my HFH Restore, they had a tall white bookcase for $20 and a really nice white desk that would make a great sewing table for $20. I only had my car so could not buy them, but have dreamed of them since.
