I love to go up and down isles looking ..getting ideas. IE plastic tubing. Hmmm.... lets get some we can cut it in short pieces both length and width and I can make little slip on clips for keeping bobbins untangled. I read that some place.
Another is that hard cardboard (?) Hmmmm... ahhh I can use that for purse / tote bottoms.. Hey hon? How hard is this to cut? I want to get a piece. LOL but over all he enjoys it. Because I do usually use it.

I got a good remark explaining to the clerk how we made an extension table outta hard foam and vinyl. Some kid that was shopping with his mom said, "that's genius!"
