I moved into my current home in May. All walls except the main bedroom were a cream color, probably due to realto.advice to the previous owners. My sewing room is the 2nd bedroom & is on the SE corner of my house. It gets great light. I did want to change the room some, so I bought a pale yellow for it. I have Ott lights on my cutting & sewing tables to assist with true fabric colors. My drawer space is a wonderful 12-drawer cabinet rescued from a redo of a college biology lab. A friend & I sanded it, painted the insides of the drawers (due to college kids' graffiti) put a polymer coating & casters on it, & moved it in. It's wonderful, & a lovely golden oak color.
