I absolutely love that fly agaric on your pony box @ Broken Irishwoman (Im a big mushroom and toadstool fan  :)). Is it a lamp?

It looks great! I also have some shroom deco (and a cute plush toy), my boyfriend is always rolling his eyes when I spot shroom stuff in a shop.  :lol: I love the simpler desings, either plain wood carved ones or painted in authentic colours, so I would definitely have bought that lamp as well.  :biggrin:

I have a 1960s glass fronted cabinet with two shelves inside which I sprayed white. I lined the shelves with acid free tissue paper and covered cereal and fruit juice boxes with acid free tissue paper to make risers. This displays about 1/6 of my collection. I think if I was going to do it seriously I would also go for Billy with glass doors. I'd also buy perspex risers because they look beautiful. I saw once that somone had hung a kind of mesh hammock thing from the cieling to hold plushies. I guess if you are worried about dust you could cover them when you're out of the room. I've also seen peeople display ponies all across the floor of a room like a model village but I'd worry about dust I think.

Well, I got my shelves and have displayed my ponies! Like I said, right now I'm only concentrating on getting the adult ponies from years 2 and 3. I've already rearranged them about 100 times  :lol: I have Powder, Windy, and Sunlight coming and when I go to my parents' house this week I'm going to look through my pile of ponies and see who can come home to be on the shelf. I think I might have enough room to display more ponies, so I will probably get the Twinkle Eyes since those are one of my favorite sets.

I had to make a Flickr account to post my photos because for some reason the way I posted pics before wasn't working  :( ...not sure what I was doing wrong, but I hope this works!

Thanks! Yeah, the minute I saw that bookcase, I knew it would be perfect (and it was on sale to boot!) I also love seeing other people's collections. It's always fun to see how they display their ponies and what they use to display them. So keep posting those pics!  :biggrin:

In our basement, on a hodge-podge of bookcases and shelving units.  With multiple moves and apartment/house designs over the years, it's an interesting set-up.

There are 5-shelf and 3-shelf bookcases, horizontal and vertical organizers, even a shelving unit that goes behind a toilet (didn't fit in either of our current home's bathrooms!)  For tiers, I've used old books (finally found a use for all those books we had to read in High School!), spice racks, CD and DVD cases (I think there's even a few VCR cases!), tissue boxes, and cut up pieces of cardboard.  Oh yeah, and a couple of shoe organizers mixed it.  Anything I thought that could be used...

These are older photos (2009-2011), and things have been reorganized since then, but you get the general idea...

I have a combo of media shelves, bookcases from Target, and adjustable shelving from Menards with boards... I've curb picked quite a few extra shelves over the summer so I really can optomize space.
