Default Garage turned studio

Hi had to let my skid shack sewing studio go to being storage. So I got an electrician to come in and wire my garage. Outlets 4 ft from floor plus outlet in ceiling and getting lined up to have spray foam ins. then use washable milkhouse type panels. I have a carpet for floor with pad but won’t use under machines. Need new steps built plus a door put in, a window put in where the garage door is now. Have some antique furniture out there to get rid of too.

How exciting! I see you're in North Dakota. Hope you're adding a heat source in there.

Sounds like a "She-shed". This is the opposite of a "Man-cave". There are books on how to decorate one of these. ENJOY!!

That will be a wonderful grab of space...you’ll need to share some photos when you get settled in.

Sounds like you are moving forward with a wonderful plan. I have claimed our entire basement, except for a couple storage corners. I like having lots of space and no one bothers my mess there, and it bothers no one, except occasionally ME! I sorta wish we had finished out the basement, but (years ago) we didn't think we 'd be here all that long! Enjoy your new space!
