I love that spongy shelf lining...its great for keeping the girls knick-knacks on their headboards without leaving a greasy little mark that handy tack leaves sometimes. I like your little pocket thingy too!!! I've been looking at one of those closable sewing table/cabinets. With our limited space it would be sooo great...it has storage for the machine when not in use...and draws for even more additional storage. Have you ever seen them?
