I have a small problem. Well, to be precise, I have about 250 small problems and they have finally combined to one large problem. What are all these items you ask? The sad fact is...they're magazines. The even sadder fact is that I'm actually pretty good about culling the herd. If a magazine only has a few images or articles that are "keepers" I cut them out and paste them into one of my idea books.
The issue occurs when the magazine itself is so full of goodies that it becomes a must-keep item. Add to that the cost of foreign magazines...once you've spent the requisite amount on the latest issue of French Vogue, Jalouse, or Lula it's difficult to throw it in the trash once you've read it.
My previous storage system (laying the magazines flat on my bookcase) has failed...I've run out of shelves or places to put another bookcase...and my husband is pleading / asking / cajoling / protesting that some form of storage is found. Apparently piles of magazines growing like stalagmites from the floor is not his idea of neat and tidy.
I've been searching but haven't found any good solutions so I'm asking for help. Where do you keep your fashion bibles?

I can only wish. As we speak, my parents are begging me to do something with my mag collection that I have conveniently left at home in a safe, sturdy set of bookcases. Humph.
