For smaller pieces of fabric, such as fat quarters or the fabric that you’re about to use to make a new tote bag, check out how This Present Life turned an old CD rack into a painted and decoupaged fabric storage rack to sit on her desk. The paint and decoupage allow the fabric and its storage system to be part of the decor, not something simply hidden away in the closet.

I love that work “upcycled”. I think I like the
wine rack one best. I’ve actually seen people use wine racks for closet storage
in small rooms too. They just roll jeans up and pop them in. I do think that
vintage glass jar looks great too though, even if you never used the fabric
scraps – it just looks so pretty as it is.
I bet jeans WOULD work well in a wine rack, or my husband’s work slacks, which he generally just balls up and stuffs back in his closet after they’ve been washed and dried, and then he pretends not to notice how wrinkled they are when he wears them again. Can he REALLY not see those wrinkles?
