    DH made a new sewing area for me in 1/2 of his huge office room. He made the Big Board ironing board for me and re-purposed the old kitchen cabinets to hold my stash. He rescued a couple of bookshelves to hold my Projects In Progress and books. He still needs to add the new task lighting to the work areas but I couldn't wait to show you! My favorite thing is that its all mine! Here are the before and after pictures. Wait for it.....

    Your sewing area looks great. Your husband did a great job.

    But PLEASE save Howdy Doody...he's in trouble. I met him personally on his show years ago, so we are old friends.

    LOL! Jeepers we painted that years ago! I honestly couldn't say what it is. Thanks for noticing it, my hubby gave me grief over the green! Nice to have some validation.
