My living room, which is where the front door is, has a tv, a couch, four dog crates and some tables with Santas on them. At Christmas, we put a big tree up in there. I am looking for a way to move my sewing in there, or least set up a bigger cutting, storage area.
It's just the two of us and the four doxies. We live back in the family room, which is a lot bigger than the living room, which isn't small either. Why not actually USE THE SPACE?
Go for it.
