Today I added some dividers to the big shelf unit to hold yarn and magazines. In four sections on the right, I put in some filler to back up the magazines.
Here's what we have so far. The magazines are glued in place but the yarn and crochet cotton balls are just staged. I need to make yard skeins in more colors. And I'm not sure about the jumbled balls of crochet cotton. Should they be stacked neatly (in which case the colors wouldn't be seen easily) or left jumbled this way? The jury is still out.

This looks wonderful! I work in a quilt shop and there is a fantastic yarn shop up the road from us! You've captured it perfectly!

Jody, thanks! What else would be found on these shelves? Most of the quilt shops I've been in have few shelves, with most of the rotary cutters and all manner of other stuff hanging on pegboard, not stocked on a shelf. Suggestions welcome!

Kathie...you could leave the crochet cotton jumbled, indicated some sloppy customer; you could stack it color out with only some labels showing. In this way you'd be able to add more of them.
ReplyDeleteGuess you should do it which ever way looks best.
Looks great so far! How about sets of fat quarters and sewing baskets for sale? Maybe even a couple of sewing machines?
