My husband uses one of these in his shop, so I thought it would be quite useful in my sewing room. We bought it at Wally World for around 5 bucks, I keep it between my machines. No more pins in the carpet (my feet are grateful.I hate wearing shoes.lol) I suppose those with computerized machines would have to be careful the magnet is strong. And the second photo is a cart we bought to organize all my cut squares from 3" to 12".

Fabulous! Now you must tell us what dept as it would solve my pin problems too. Thanks

The auto department...:)

That figures doesn't it!!

I find all kinds of things to use in my sewing room, I have a small tackle boxes I use to store buttons, bobbins and I even have one of these (red thing) to store pins sewing machine needles, ribbon and other goodies in. And I used an old desk hutch top for a shelf unit to store fat quarters and my current projects.

Just a suggestion - If you are not going to use the rod in the closet, take it out. Love the tackle box for small things idea.

I use it, you just can't see..lol I have a spot in the back where I hang some flags and my Harley jackets.

Where did you find your cool cart? Wow that is awesome!

I work in a quilt shop & she has used the big one for years on her quilting machines & I have used the little one for my pins even before I started at the quilt shop, plus at WalMart for about $5 they have a little pop up trash can that works great from taking to classes, set & sews I have been married to a man with nuts & bolts for 46 years so we have traded a lot of things like this, but I got more of his then he did of mine

At a store called Bi-mart. They are a chain of stores located here in the Pacific Northwest. Costs about 20 bucks.
