the original scrapbox
I purchased one of these for my new sewing trailer which is going to be delivered tomorrow!! The trailer that is. I have to wait till June or so to get the scrapbox. The had so many orders that they ran out. go to "theoriginalscrapbox.com" to see it. I did not get the totes. I have a daughter who sells 31 products and I have lots of those to put in the spaces. Plus I have clear shoeboxes with things in to put on the shelves. It opens out and is on wheels. Also has a light and a drop down table in it. Can't wait to get my stuff all out into the trailer after it gets painted and moved into it space here beside my house. will be a quick walk in and out. Hoping to get a little covered walkway to it from the garage. I am going to just love my new space when it gets done. I have been severely deprived of my sewing the past 1 1/2 years because of not being able to leave out and come back and pick up where I left off. 3 dogs too many in the house and are shedding to beat the band. They must think spring is here. when I get it I am going to take pictures and do an in progress deal so I can see how I do.

THAT IS AWESOME!! See my green eyes! Seriously, do take pictures as I think your project will be amazing. While I'm settled into my two spaces (and able to keep the dogs out of both thankfully!) I have a good friend that is wanting ideas of how to get more quilting space in her house--husband doesn't want to add to house but not opposed to considering other ideas.

I was supposed to have my new house built in 1981 moved to be the end of this one. When we built that house we had it so it would fit door to door on here. However my dh decided I did not need that much room, so unfortunately my house is going to h--- at the other place. I have been hunting for something that I could buy that would be nice and tight and ward--those skid shacks are really insulated. I have a # of machines, with tables, a couple of industrials and they are going in there too. Will have the back room for my stash and some of my machines on shelves --have two featherweights. Also have a Brother embroidery machine that I have yet to plug in and turn on. I bought carpet and pad that was supposed to go into the bus dh thought I could use. Didn't work, so if I can get everything lined up that bus will be moved out of the way and my sewing shack will go there. Mine decided we didn't need extra room, but I couldn't get up the stairs anymore-so that was out. Will be taking pictures and hoping to figure out how to put them in here so all can see. I told some of my sewing friends that they were welcome to come and sew when she is done. I also plan on painting a barn quilt on the plywood that I will hang on the outside.

I'm sure you're going to love your new space... and your new sewing box. Have fun getting it all re-organized the way you want it. Don't forget to post pictures.

Never heard of the scrapbox before, but looks interesting.....good luck with it and your trailer(?)..... You must live "out in the country"... I'm picturing, from your posts, a bus, and now a trailer........on your property.......have fun with your new "world"
|
Wow, today is the day your trailer comes! Be sure to take pictures of progress .....it's kind of fun to look back at those pictures. Sounds like you have a plan.........enjoy the journey and embrace the joy!
|
Thanks for sharing I went to the website and wow this is great, question did you have to put it together or did the co. do it for you.
|
Good Luck with this product. It should be able to keep you organized.
|
I've been eye-balling that scrapbox forever and I'm so jealous! I hope you love it! :)
|
You are going to have an awesome set up when it is finished.
|

I have carpet n pad to go into it. it will be moved this spring down by my house so I can go in and out thru garage. Who wee I have waited for years to get my own sewing space. It also has a propane furnace that can be run. I plan on putting a 500 gal propane tank near it.

Looks great! A happy sewing space to call your own!
|
I've never heard of Scrapbox, but wow that looks amazing! Congrats on your sewing "home" that sounds wonderful!
|
That will make a great sewing space. Hope the ice in the picture is on the window and not the camera lens. Was wondering how you were going to stay warm in winter. Post more pics when you get it set up. Enjoying following this story.

Looks like a super quilting set up Amyjo! I'd bet you are craving spring to finish this project!!!!
|
what a sewing space that will be. all the comforts of home and you can have visitors to your sewing home too!
Best of luck with it, im jealous over it too. Have a blast with it! It's better than a shed or a room, you have another full house of fabric and fun!!! |
I can't wait. I'm busy figuring what all I can put in there, will have to go and measure when it warms up this week. also will have to put some mouse poison out as we have mice out here in the country and one door isn't quite flush with the jam. I have 2 identical entertainment stands that I plan on putting out there. I have baskets that will fit in them for stuff that doesn't fit in a drawer. 1 cabinet that I have fabric stashed in in the front room. the other is in my kitchen with my mixer, containers for food etc, that doesn't fit in the cupboards. I need to get it all painted first, then put in the carpet and pad. Then the furniture can go in. About the tie I can do that my daughter from Wyoming should be home for some vacation time and she will help with one of my girls in Minot and her 2 boys. Oh the waiting is hard. Just have to keep thinking spring will be here soon. Amy

oh the weather has been so nice here, I am getting antsy to get started on my WOMAN CAVE/SEWING ROOM. See my blog for pictures. Hopefully March will go out like a lamb so I can get up to it to at least clean and measure the rooms so I can graph out where I want everything. Stuff will have to stay where it gets put since it is too big to move once it is in the bldg. I am going to see if I can take my oak kitchen cabinets out of our old house that we lived in and use that for storage of my stuff too.

whoo hoo, got the word today that my workbox is on its way to its new home. Don't know when it will arrive, but it is coming Fed Ex Freight. I can't say the shipping was so expensive. Boy can hardly wait. Coming from Idaho/Utah area. They are sure great people to work with.
|
It is here in my trailer. 7 boxes. 600 lbs. of course it was way up in front of the Fed Ex semi that brought it. I am glad I didn't decide to put it in my old house. the floor probably would have caved in. Mercy. Sure wish spring would hurry and get here so DH can get started with the dirt work.
