    Many players have samples of music to play, strategically positioned near various instruments on their lot(s). With the decoration object limits in place, we often have to carefully choose or limit which samples there are to play. We also have to find inventive ways to display each sheet that does not always have a pleasing effect.

    Wouldn't it be nice to have a music stand that specializes in storing sheet music to set near an instrument display or vendor? This new type of container would have several benefits:
    • Clear up a lot of sheet music clutter lying around, improving the ambiance of the area
    • Make better use of the deco object limitations
      • caveat: increases "containers placed" count
    • Make finding and keeping track of playable music samples much easier for both music vendors and buyers listening to the samples
    • Serve as a place to display a single sheet of music to give an idea / reminder of it's function, or perhaps make a sheet part of the display aesthetic.
    • Renaming the music stands would help sort music that sounds best for piano, lute, harp, flute etc.

    Would it need to be a craftable item?

    Not necessarily, but I'm not opposed to the idea either. A craftable version might be less ornate than a COTO version and have fewer storage slots available. There could also be a wooden and a metal version depending on the look you prefer. I like the idea of silver, gold and bronze versions as well as finished maple or pine versions.
