    It looks great, Linda! It is both attractive *and* practical. The lit lucite box has a great look as well (thank you for the tip about Ikea).

    Looks great...and that is one great lit cube with your 80s necklace and earrings.

    Fabulous. Love your sweaters.

    I have so much problems with moths. I would be concerned about displaying at all.
    I garden quite a bit and think they are drawn to it.

    Love the jewelry also.

    Very nice display, I would love something like that for my shop.

    Looks great!

    I have a similar set up, actually! I have old modern designer cubes that are white and 13" x 13" -- they are stackable in any configuration you want, but I have a block of them, like yours - 2 wide and 3 cubes high. I put fabric drawers in mine -- found the "drawers" at Target that is the right size to fit them in a grey linen-look fabric. I keep my sweaters in there (hidden) instead of on display.

    I wonder if anyone has ever been in touch with Ikea to recommend such a product be designed.

    That's great Linda! You mentioned you'd be willing to product test for them right? :D

    Well, that's encouraging! Let's hope that they put that into their production. Happy to see they got back so quickly.

    I do hope they make something like this.

    What a wonderful display of your collection. Perhaps THIS acrylic box would suit your needs?

    However, one 12 x 12 x 12 box with lid is $78.50! 25 x 78.50 = $1962. 50!!! You just need to win the lottery, Linda!

    I guess IKEA never got back to you after you suggested making a clear storage shelving unit.
