Neither the air conditioner nor the heater should pose a problem. However, depending on what part of Texas you're in, you might want to manage the humidity a bit. I'm in West Texas where it's considered high desert and very dry (most years, anyway) :D So need to add a little humidity in the house in the wintertime to protect wood furnishings, ie. sewing tables, cabinets and shelving. If you're in East or South Texas, it's VERY humid which can be pretty taxing on machines so you'll want to make sure the window unit does a good job of condensing the humidity and clearing it out. Would love to see pictures of your finished "sewing house" :) And congratulations!!!!! :) |
I want to thank you all for your advice. I knew you all would come through for me. If you could see this place you would not be jealous. It is a lot of work. It had been used for a rent house for the last 7 years. The last one was a heavy smoker so I'm scrubbing walls and ceilings to paint....not a spot in the kitchen without a grease spot. If I can pull this off I will post pictures but it will take time. I've been scrubbing for nearly a month now. Hard on the old arms and shoulders. Thanks again

I can't imagine having a whole house. You are so lucky. Post pics when you can.

Sounds like a dream "craft" home in the making. It will be fun filling it and decorating it from quilters eyes! Can't wait to see what you have done in the future! Congrats!

Wow your own quilt cottage! How fun! Sorry not good at answering your questions but hopefully some one can.

I have a friend that did this same exact thing! Her husband uses the "second" house next door as his train house. He has electric trains set up in different rooms and she has the dining room set up for hosting meetings for various groups she belongs too. They love it.
