I repurposed/reused everything I could think of - left over paint from another project covered the walls, 2 armoires from our bedroom became storage units, my grandfather's old dresser became the cutting board and more storage, an old bulletin board turned into a design board - I even grabbed a rug from our back door entrance and put on the floor! The crowning jewel in this little space is the ironing board my dad built me - 18" x 60" which I covered with a large fabric remmnent and pieces of batting. It is incredibly functional and a lot of fun to work in - see what you think!
Great job, great sewing room.........necessity is the mother of invention !
