This might interest UK scarfies. I came across them last night. Although they say they are for craft stuff I think they would be perfect for scarves. They make to order too so you can choose how many drawers, inserts and size of drawer, to accommodate everything from rings to CSGMs. Definitely putting this on my wish list.View attachment 4386163

As a 'new' collector (ok, future addict) - I'm loving this thread :D

Oddly enough I've always been attracted to the antique map drawers and architect drawers but I've always said to myself 'I don't have a use for it' so I can't buy it. Now, I can totally justify them :D

I've also got some serious OCD so thank you for the great ideas about cataloging etc.

I’ve always wanted a map drawer. So glad there is a reason to get one!!:p
 
I used to have huge sets of map drawers in the school libraries that I managed. We used them for maps, of course, but also art work and posters. I wish I had one of them now! Although they were so big that I don’t think I could fit one in this tiny house. But then, scarves are so important, aren’t they? Who cares about fitting in a bed or a wardrobe?

An ex-librarian - what a small world! My mother and many friends are ex-librarians :) We too have a small house (with little wall space) so I am always torn with furniture. I do love beautiful old wooden pieces though. The irony of purchasing scarves and therefore requiring map drawers whilst also depleting the map drawer budget is not lost on me :huh:

I've just discovered your blog - so many similarities with my life so I'm looking forward to perusing it :smile:

I remember the huge shallow drawers that a team in my company used for blueprints. They were all disposed of when everything became computerised. And I had this vision where I'd put two of these blueprint or map drawer sets together, plonk a mattress on top, and ascend a tiny flight of steps each night to sleep atop my treasures. IRL I got married and this remained a dream :rolleyes:

:lol:That sounds wonderful! Sleeping on top of your scarves!!!:tender:Talk about restorative sleep. :pI could be recharged in no time after sleeping on scarves and maybe a few bags and some SLG....:angel:

We threw out a wooden Victorian map drawer chest about ten years ago as my son had found his father's saw and taken wedges out the top edge. If only I had known I would develop a passion for scarves. Grrrrrrrrr!
