I have four big tubs under the table, sorted by categories, etc. But the highlight and must have item of my sewing room is my table. I bought an adjustable height table from IKEA. They have many sizes, you can find one that will fit your area. I have it low for sewing to take the stress off my arms and shoulders. When I need it higher, I can move my machine and adjust the height. (or use the dining table with bed lifters.)
I looked in IKEA for a table that is adjustable in height but could not find one. Could you post a picture of the one you have?
I too get a sore back as all our tables are just too low and I cant raise them as we use them for other things too.
