Creating a fabric closet

Long overdue for a fabric and sewing closet, I finally updated an old silky oak wardrobe with a few coats of paint, wall papered panels, and new handles. The blue of the photos does not do justice to the colour in life, nor does the present buttercup yellow wall. It was an unusual colour choice of mine, as I tend to be drawn more towards duck egg green and aqua blue.  However the citron chartreuse dandelion in the wall paper provides the fresh colour contrast. I get pleasure every time I open my sewing closet to see my fabrics on display, folded and stacked with care; ready for my selection.
 


My block patterns hang neatly, and my pattern & sewing reference books top my closet next to my vintage Singer.
