Turn that old luggage into cute storage for yarn, fabric, or any other craft supplies you have laying around. Which if you are anything like me, you have lots of.

Using vintage and thrifted retro pieces, in my opinion, makes it storage that doesn’t need to be hidden! Which is nice in homes like mine that don’t have enough closets, spare rooms, and garages... indie lovely

Most markets now sell reusable bags of some kind. They are also pretty cheap. Get a couple to store yarn that way. I upcycled my daughter’s moses basket that she liked as a baby. I can fit my entire red heart collection in it.

Boxes are also an option. I have many different sizes and shapes from ikea to hold my stash.

Yarn is so pretty to look at, and when I am choosing colors for my upcoming projects., I wanna see all the colors, all at once. Baskets and bowls, even baking dishes work. I love to use clear loaf pans to group together favorite color combos.
