Target has extendable risers in the kitchen section. That's what we are using in addition to a CD sized bookcase.What do those extendable risers look like...? o_o; Because if my fiance and I can get out to Target this month that would be something worth looking into... (He also needs risers for some of his stuff).
White, with a grey non-skid top. About as wide as say, a large soup can. Two interlocking pieces. If I remember correctly, in the kitchen storage area. Does that make sense? Not boxed, but the two layers are fastened together. Three tiers altogether.are the called "risers"? im thinking maybe i could find them online :)

Three tiers altogether.Personally I don't like these, they're so low that all the ponies kind of get mashed together :huh: They were also like $10 apeice when I saw them and I'd need so many.
i've used a piece of spare wood painted or stained to match the shelf. like 2x4 or somesuch.me too!! theyre perfect! and 4x4's are even better! to allow each layer of ponies to really be seen well ^_^
I bought a few sets of the plain white expandable pantry risers from ebay, and I am in love with them. The ones I boguht the 2 pieces aren't locked together, so you basically get 2 sets of riders with each one - you just have to use something to prop up the back corner of one of them, but it's easy enough. I paid $30 for a set of two, so four lengths of riser.
I use them for my MH collection (this is the two halves separated, so this is full length

This is awesome! I'm going to have to look them up :) I am using old clear plastic ferreo rocher boxes but they are expensive and require me to eat a lot of chocolate!

Ahahahaha! That was a great way to start my day! I freaking LOVE ferrero rochers! Glad this thread helped though. I too have been pondering this for a while.
So many good ideas! I love those clear store display things. I also love the white ones that the MH dolls are on. I think I need to wait to actually purchase something like that though. My husband is a carpenter, so maybe I could get him to give me some wood :blush: ....Aaaaanway....That sounded off. I don't really want to bring him into it as he said I am on my own with figuring out risers. But if it means I won't be spending money, he would probably agree.
Where do you buy foam?
Rhini- I am totally confused. How do you roll something into a block shape?
Pangel- OH MY! That is a lot of ponies!!!

Ahhh, now I get it! There is usually not a cardboard shortage around here, so maybe I should try this. If it's free it's for me:P Sorry, so cheesy!XD Nice. I would recommend doing it the way they did and including a square of cardboard in the center, because mine don't have one and consequently they're kind of flimsy. They get the job done though! And actually look quite nice. I made a few different sizes. I think for the G1's they were 4 inches, and the g3's I was able to get away with 3 inches. Then I have super small like 1 inch ones for the blind bags. I'll take pictures when I re-organize :)
