You said you have an office in the spare bedroom..can you move your stuff in there? I used to blame the kids for leaving things all over the house..and when they were all moved, out,it still gets that way..! so joe and i must be as bad as the kids!
i have a sewing room, but i still manage to bring out my travel machine and sewing in the kitchen/living room..(it is one room, we took the wall out years ago)
i am so lucky, my husband never complains about my sewing items being everywhere..course, i threatened to burn down his garage one year..that could be why he won't tick off the red head! ;)
