Want to join in the fun, just head over and she has posted the info and deskers involved.
My work area is a total mess. We have been gone most of the week. On fun little jaunts. The best was "Junk Bonanza" in Mpls. Mn. With the rainy weather my hubby had time and offered to go with me to the HUGE event. It's about 2 1/2 hrs North to the cities. We had a super fun time. I think Tim Holtz posted a grouping of photos of the event on his blog here Tim Holtz Blog They kind of restrict the public from cameras. We spent about 3 1/2 hrs visiting all the displays. He loved all the ideas.
I purchased 2 of these from a fabric store going out of business while visiting my son and just got them unpacked. Haven't had time to figure out where I will put these for storing items as of now.
They held "fat quarters" at the fabric shop. Maybe can work on that in a few minutes.
We are hoping weather predictions of being on the edge of severe storms remains true. So many states south and east are having hail, high winds, heavy rain and tornadoes. Most have lost electricity. So we will not be going out for the next 2 days.
Thanks for stopping by, I will make my rounds today, Just wasn't available last week. I scheduled my post and spent very little time on my home computer. Truly loved your comments.
Have a great week.

Wow! I didn't even know about the event and I live in Minneapolis! Guess I'll have to watch for it next spring. Those racks look like they'll be great for storage. Hope you'll share a pic once you get them loaded with stuff.
You were def in the right place at the right time to pick up that new storage....I'd have them filled with fabric in no time at all :-)
Have a great week.

I never seem to come across anything nice like that. I love these and can just imagine them filled with lovely bits of lace etc. Now go get busy and fill them to the brim!

Good find! Like Glenda, I never seem to find those sort of things...Trust your weather isn't too bad today, and that you have the power you need.
Take care. God bless.

Oh that's a cool storage option. Enjoy filling it up. Happy WOYWW. Susanne #38
That sounded like a fabulous trip to go on. I checked out Tim's pictures and they look great. Sad they wouldn't allow cameras but sort of understandable. That's a great storage item. Not sure what I'd use it for either.
Happy WOYWW

That's a great find from the defunct fabric store. I'm sure you'll keep all sorts of treasures in it. I hope the storms stay away from your area. PJ & Dio #57
Love finding new storage items - it's great when you can find something to repurpose for exactly what you need - or fun to figure out what you need it for! :)
Have a great day.

Good find at the store, I could use those bins for sure! I hope that by now you've discovered that you are at the edge of bad weather, crikey you've had your share! I like the sound of Junk Bonanza!
Your storage units look perfect for fabric - I am sure you will soon find a use for them. Will love to swap ATCs. x Jo
Those are fabulous storage trays - what a lucky find - they will look great filled with lots of lovely stash! Hope the weather misses you, but hopefully you'll get lots of crafting in if you are staying indoors for 2 days!
Thanks for the earlier visit, hope you have a good week

Hi Sylvia, Thanks for visiting my blog. I like these storage units. You could put a pretty card on front of each as a label.
Sounds like you have had some fun and now you have a project for those days you will not go out. Stay safe!
