Perhaps you’ve done this also, but I found a way to make
better use of my wall space. I bought
some new 2-drawer file cabinets (25 inches deep). They are about 30 inches tall. I put three of them together: 45 inches wide now. On top of them I added a 48 inch tall
bookshelf.
Now I have 6 file drawers with over 12 feet of shelf space
on top. Between the second and third
file cabinets is a folding step stool for the times I need to reach the top
shelves.
At the far end is a floor to ceiling bookcase with some drawers built in the bottom for miscellaneous sewing supplies. Since the photo, I've added a couple of woven baskets on the shelves for items that need to be "contained."
Right now, one of the drawers is EMPTY. Can you believe it?
Hopefully this idea will help you with your organizing.
