WOW!! fantastic!! Congratulations, I would love to be able to do something like this.It took a while, but the envelopes finally arrived and I've begun the switch from sort-of chaos to reasonable order. I love the envelopes because they let the silk breathe since they are plastic on one side and fabric on the other. Getting the boards was a real pain but I got it done and they work.
I've not settled on a crate, filing system, basket or whatever to store the envelopes in, but my bigger problem was storing the scarves themselves so I'm happy with my progress thus far. I've left the plisse, the pointu and the chale in their orange boxes since I don't have enough of these sizes/styles yet () to confuse me. Since the company has different sizes of these envelopes, one or more of them may work.

jeez i feel bad now. i just take them off and chuck them unfolded into this pretty fabric storage box
here ya go -- for the envelopes: METAL EDGE PRODUCTS
and for the boards (which i got slightly smaller than the envelopes to leave room for the scarf around it): METAL EDGE PRODUCTS
i've found that soft, vintage scarves really need two boards to fold well, for new scarves one was fine.
but DON'T place your order online -- shipping costs too much. call up and they calculate actual shipping (i think the website charges a % of the sale amount).
