Funny you should ask what we used to line the walls. I'm committed to recycling and my neighbor's know it. When they did a remodeling project on the outside of their house, they generously offered us the used panels from the exterior. They were 6X8 feet and cost us $0! We hung them over the grungiest walls one can imagine. We had to shim the panels to get a somewhat straight look because the building is OLD and was never meant to be finished like this. We were fortunate that the floor was professionally poured and smoothed concrete. Since the building is built with walls nearly a foot thick (they built it with rocket boxes from Kirtland AFB) we could not run the electrical outlets in the walls, so we opted to use conduit and place 4 outlets under the shelving above my machine and 2 more outlets in the shelves you see built into that thick exterior wall where the new addition was added.

We had some really nice latex enamel paint left over from painting our bathrooms and used it all up with the two-tone mint green theme. The light paint is "silence" and the slightly darker paint on 2 walls and the shelf edging that conceals the electric is "brook green" by Behr paints.

Thanks for your kind comments. We worked very hard to get this from a dirty feed and storage room to its current state. It's hot here in NM and it has been a struggle for both of us. Now, I'm free to learn how to quilt on a frame, so it is worth it to me.

LOVE how you used found free things. My friend has had that quilting machine for years and loves it. You did a fabulous job.
