I can relate to most who have responded to this thread. My DH doesn't really know what all I have in my sewing room (nor do I know exactly what is in his woodworking shop!) but he encourages me in this hobby and even is proud to show it to others. But it's not that I hide anything and we don't spend out of the "household budget". He makes more shelves when needed, makes quilt hangers, made the lovely tool caddy that I posted a picture of a few days ago, etc.
