    Smile Both my daughter and I got craft tables today!

    My daughter, grandson and I all went yard saling today and scored.
    She is making her closet into her scrapbooking/crafts area and needed a table.

    Went to a street sale and right away found the perfect desk for her....a smaller kitchen table with a nice dark stained top and painted black apron and legs for $20.00
    It took me 10 minutes to get it in the trunk of the car and tied down!!!

    Went to another yardsale and found a smaller old school teacher's desk for $5. They had stained it a cherrywood color which I really like. It's a bit beat up but I don't mind. It's just the right height and size for a cutting table for me, and it's got lots of storage. I love these desks, but they are always alot bigger than this one. She agreed to deliver it for $10.00 and I am a happy camper again.
    Unfortunately, I don't have space right now in my house for it, but it can sit in the garage with an old sheet over it until I do!

    I will have an awesome sewing space big enough for everything one day when I get my spare bedroom back!!!!
