These are some gorgeous holders. I have just some basic cardboard holders, and covered a few in wallpaper. I really should finish the job. Two of the magazines are quarterly needlework magazines (and scarily thin the last couple of years) and the other is a bi-monthly sewing magazine, so they really don't take up that much room. And I do go back and read through them.
ReplyDeleteWhat I'd like to find is the metal brackets so I can label the holders with magazine name and years.
I have a some decorative magazine holders I use in my book closet for items that don't stand upright very easily...like some spiral notebooks, and scripts from plays I've been in.
ReplyDeleteI bought some really handy clips that slide onto the magazine holder that have a place to insert removable labels. (I bought them from IKEA.) These are fantastic for labeling decorative holders or boxes without ruining them...and for the ability to change the label to use the holder for a different item.
