I converted one of the kids bedrooms to my sewing room. I took the doors off the closet and put shelves and a metal container with drawers (kind of like a file cabinet only it has small drawers instead of files). I have hung a decorative rod above the closet and all the way across the wall. I have a piece of white felt that I hang over the rod and it gives me my design wall. I love it! It is easy to pin my blocks and rearrange as needed.
