I've seen wonderful entertainment centers that could be converted to a storage unit in the sewing area. Wood ( I prefer glass) shelving where the big old tv was situated would be really great. And if it had doors there it would even be better. I have my eye on 2 of them in a privately owned little flea market/antique store. These are going to come up in secondary markets by the hundreds when folks switch to flat panels. The good rule is...use what you have or can borrow.
