We hear from a lot of photogrpahers about thier problems in storing photography props.  Believe it not, we are very sympathic, even with a warehouse size of 2,000 square feet.  One good friend and photographer jokingly sent us this picture showing a mock disaster scence of his wicker falliing on him. 

We certainly would not want this on anyone, especially with some our photo props being metal!  One perspective that other photograthers have shared with is to view props as both a tool to make them look AND to feel fresh.  They use the prop for the inspiration and beauty that it gives him or her but they do not keep it.  The sell it to the client, to other photographers at swap meets and to buyers on Ebay .  We have heard that having the Wicker By Design label automatically raises the selling price much closer to the original retail.
