I have "temporarily" moved my sewing room downstairs to be close if my DH needs me. Was thinking of getting stuff moved back upstairs in time for Thanksgiving dinner but now will re-think that idea. love the extra storage idea, maybe I should go hunting for a new china hutch!!!

Could you add wheels or legs to raise cabinet. Maybe add a base. space is valuable to lose.

Is there a way that you can build up from the bottom? Perhaps build a base to set it on. (Just a simple box-type base)

What a great idea! Wish I had a place to put one.

Nice cutting table.

Suggestions for raising it: as others said, use wheels. I used wooden bed risers that I bought at Bed, Bath, & Beyond to raise my cutting table.

What a find! And the extra space. You did a great job covering it. Thanks for the idea.

Now you know Kitty will find a nice soft spot on it.. test it out .. and then you will know !!!! At least all of the previous cats had been that way that we ever had !LOL
Congrats on the re-purposing of furniture- I try to do that every chance I get.
I took a holder for CD's and that is now my nice and tidy thread holder !

Lovely idea. I have a home-made big board & the kitty doesn't trip over it, she sleeps on it & yacks up furballs on it! I bought a large piece - 2 yards of clear plastic at Walmart to use as a cover when I'm not ironing. This way, it's safe from her. She's 17 YO & rules the house.
