Default Vintage Machine Displays/Arrangements

There have been several folks ask about how we display/work with so many machines, and I've seen a few photos posted that make me look like a clutterbug and a slob with no style sense (I am, but that's beside the point! ) I am going to be brave, stick my neck out, and post some photos of how my machines are arranged or in one case, displayed...hopefully the rest of you will add to this thread with photos of your own!

I live in a two bedroom apartment, and while it's large as apartments go, I could use another bedroom for guests...and maybe another machine or two!

There are five machines in this first picture....the "desk" is a Kenmore 84 cabinet, next to it is a 15-91 in a Queen Anne cabinet, and then my 500A. On top of the Kenmore desk are my featherweight and 28K.

The other two cabinets in my sewing room are for my 201-2, and my 403.
I also have a few (or more) portables in the closet that aren't shown.

There's the majority of them...I have a couple in my bedroom, various portables here and there, and a Redeye in a case waiting for it's treadle "skirt" to get finished.

C'mon....if I can suck it up and post pics of my clutter and messy sewing room, you can too!!
