Years ago I had a beautiful sewing cabinet at a sewing center in SLC, UT that looked like a huge armoire, or china hutch but had solid oak doors. The base opened up and the doors had thread storage on them, then there were 3 drawers inside that were on each side of the machine motorized lift. The upper cabinet was huge, perfect for lots of stash and boxes. When I was finished sewing for the day, it just closed up perfectly. The whole cabinet stood about 7' tall, but once it was placed, it had to stay because it weighed a ton being solid oak. I loved it so much that my hubby at the time decided we needed to buy my MIL one too! He eventually built me a sewing room in our basement so I ended up selling that cabinet... biggest mistake I ever made!
