Any ideas on where to find a good stand-alone craft organizer?

Hi, all. One of my presents I’d like to get my mother for Christmas is a good craft organizer. One that stands on it’s own would be best. She has a lot of stuff, and something that she could put right next to her sewing table would perfect. She does all sorts of crafts – sewing, quilting, crocheting, scrapbooking, etc. She’s the person who, whenever a friend or co-worker needs some pants hemmed or taken in or needs something like couch cushions made, they all go to her. Any suggestions on where I can get an organizer for all her fabrics, threads, and supplies?

I have Michael’s, Joann Fabrics, Walmart, Kmart, and Target all within close proximity to my house, so if anyone has found something at one of those stores, that would be amazing.

I was thinking if I can’t specifically find a craft organizer, I was going to get those plastic rubbermaid drawers like these – http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=8282902 . It’s better than nothing, I suppose. We have 2 kittens who, if they can get their mischievous little paws on a spool of thread, WILL make a maze with it around the house. Not the easiest thing to clean up, haha.

Any suggestions are helpful. Thanks!

    I have one of these for my machine embroidery supplies. Each drawer is a case that closes and can be removed as needed – http://www.joann.com/joann/catalog.jsp?CATID=cat2051&PRODID=xprd529680

    Walmart had something very similar in the crafting area.

    I have many more carts. They come without the wheels unattached – check the drawers to be sure there is a bag of wheels enclosed.

    Got them all at Walmart:

    My basement looks like the annex for JoAnn, Hobby Lobby and Walmart! lol
