We asked, where do you get your display furnishings?

I use a lot of baker shelf-type units. The Robert H. Ham company has some great shelves, very inexpensive. Also, I go to Hobby Lobby. Using these types of shelves allows me to make small areas and rearrange often.

Often, franchise stores revamp their look, and many just discard their previous wall paneling and even shelving. Keep a lookout for this kind of revamp at local shopping centers, then approach the business owner or franchisee and ask if you could maybe purchase the product cheaply. They are often only too willing to do this as they get a small return instead of paying to have it all taken away.
