A Teetering Tower of Yarn

Q: What does a Morrgan do when she receives a tall CD-tower?

A: She fills it up with yarn, of course!



Alas, I must admit it's not the most practical form of storage. Even a tower this tall will only hold a fraction of my yarns. Sure, I was able to empty a whole box of yarn into this, but there's another 8 boxes of yarn in the storage room.



It does look rather pretty though, doesn't it? =) Some colour is just what that empty white space needed.

  1. I love it! What a great idea - I'm imagining my fabric in a cd tower now. : )

  3. Hi Jo Anne,

    It came from a friend, I'm afraid I don't know where they got it originally.

    They are definitely from Ikea. I have four of them & use them to store my yarn & my fat quarters. You sometimes find them on second hand sites such as Kijiji or Craigslist.

    Love this idea, I'm going to use it. I see tall metal CD towers all the time @ second hand stores.
    Thanks for sharing.
