Seems I don't have any photos since I reorganized, but this gives the basic idea. I've got them stacked on all sorts of crap because I can't afford shelving and my boyfriend didn't want to help me make risers when he was here. Though I do have more ponies who aren't able to be displayed due to space issues.

I've found those clear acrylic boxes that are a perfect fit for G4s, so I'm setting up a tower of ponies XD

I have th perfect thing to display ponies on that shows them all off very well and doesn't take up to much space!  I use wooden multi shelf CD shelves.  They only stick out about 4 inches from the wall and they hold lots of ponies!

Anyway, that is a picture of 2 of the CD shelves side by side and I also actually have the shelves sitting on my daughters dresser.  I have an other one that is taller sitting on the floor.  And I just bought another one for out computer room and I should be able to stack one more on top of it and it will just fit from floor to ceiling.  I have been buying this paticular one at Big Lots stores for $40.  But I'm sure you may be able to find other ones in other stores.  Let me know what you think.

Those are a perfect fit for the ponies! I may be heading to Big Lots to see what they have there!

Wow everypony! Thanks! I've got lots of ideas! Risers are a great idea, love all the bookshelves! I think I'm going to go with the Billy system at Ikea! And the nail polish stand is a great idea too! All of your collections are beautiful! I wish I had time to reply to each and every post!

I'm still needing some ponies...


Those boxes are made by a factory named Albano here in Brazil; I don't know if they sell those elsewere, but the model is named Cachepot Prestige #6, and cost around one dollar each


And this is how I display my G1, that way I can place them anywhere in my house  ^.^

I wanted my ponies to be all together, but alas, I ran out of room on the bottom half of my mirror shelves. So now there are ponies in my sisters' LPS collection, ponies on my dresser, and a big, custom fakie on my vanity.

These pictures are outdated, since I just have my LPS on the shelves and not my MLPs, but I thought I'd post them anyway to show the shelving that I use.  I bought some inexpensive pantry cabinets at Target (the small ones are around $25 each, I think?), and what I like best about them is that they have doors, which keep dust off my collection.


I've also started to use spice shelves to display ponies in my cabinets, since they create a nice tiered effect.  I have some wire shelving inserts as well, which are stackable and just the right height for ponies.  I'll try to get some updated pictures soon!

Risers are KEY!!
I cant stand having ponies being blocked, I must see thier faces and symbols :)
I use all kinds of things.... empty boxes, 2x4s, 4x4s (lumber), decks of cards, pieces of styrofoam...
and then usually i cover it up with a piece of material (sheet, table cloth etc)


here are some pics of my collection at its peek :)

Oh wow! Too bad I have a low ceiling in my room, otherwise I would have gladly bought some of those cabinets to store all of my toys.
