Repurposing Old Window Shutters

I love old stuff, especially old doors, windows and shutters. I've seen some great ideas on the web for repurposing these things, like creating a headboard out of an old door, or organizing your mail with an old shutter. I also LOVE the idea of using an old window pane for framing art or pictures. One thing I was in desperate need of was a way to start organizing my various fabrics, as I have limited space in my not-so-spacious apartment. Well, an old shutter is exactly what I needed. I found this beat up, yellow shutter at an antique store for $12.00. I mean, seriously, how cute is this?

Here are some other great ideas for repurposing shutters:
