another AW :) new sewing table w/ pips

DH kicked me off the kitchen table after the new floor was finished.. so I decided to make a new table in my office. We used 3 target bookshelves with doors ($~75) and a sheet of laminated particle board from lowes (~$30). My new table is 135in long, 32in high, & 24in deep. I also put up some pegboard ($30 for two 2ftx4ft sheets) & an old bulletin board that I covered with wrapping paper. I know it will eventually look crappy & torn, but I can always recover it. (ignore the fact that I desperately need some curtains!)

  • Geez- generous AND organized. Making me look pretty bad today, Lucky. :-p

    Very cool idea for the table- it looks awesome- so much SPACE!

  • I love this! I think I may steal this idea for my sewing room, right now my sewing machines are on an old folding table!

  • I like that!  My craft room is probably now going to be consolodated into a guest room/craft room (but the reason is wonderful).  I like how you did that table and it would work GREAT in the space we have.  Great inspiration!

  • So jealous of your table and your room!  Very nice.
    Once in a while you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    Party!!!Party!!! I agree that you have a pretty good reason for sharing your dream craft room in the new house.

     However, I vote that you send your guests to a hotel & take the whole room for yourself. Embarrassed

    Well, if the "guests" didn't go by the names of grandma and grandpa and do free babysitting...I would!  LOL!  But, I won't complain, they actually gave us $$ to buy ourselves a new bedroom set so they could use the old on in the guest bedroom!  We had an air matress in the old house that we would use--guess they are tired of it (although we always offered our bed--but you know how g'parents are!).
