You can find kitchen cabinets for sale really cheap or even free on Craigslist. Those make wonderful storage for quilters. We took our old cabinets out of the kitchen when we remodeled, and I painted those & DH installed them for me. Bought a long laminate counter from Home Depot, which went on top. Perfect height for me, to cut on, iron on (I have both a regular ironing board & a small one I use on the counter sometimes), and work on projects. DH put mini floodlights on the cabinetry we installed above, so I have tons of light. I love my quilt room and DH really pulled out the stops in making it work for me.....we're coming up to our 40th anniv & I'm very blessed! You can come up with great storage area for very little with some creativity.
