from old desk to sewing desk
 

I found this old desk on craigslist for $15 bucks. I had my son remodel it just a bit so the machine sets down in it. The knee hole drawer and the top right drawer aren't use able as drawers any more but I still have 5 nice drawers. The knee hole drawer has a stack of wood just the right height to support one end of the shelf for the machine. The other end has a support attached to the inside end of the desk.

I like your new sewing desk!

You may want to check out the hardware store. You can get the hardware to take off the knee hole drawer front and turn it into one of those tilt-out drawers on some old treadle machines. I use the one on my treadle for the small things like extra feet, bobbins, screwdrivers, etc.

Just a thought.

Beautiful, by the way. Love the old waterfall furniture.

Awesome sewing desk.

Great sewing desk!!!

that's probably the best $15 you've spent in a long time! Looks very nice to me. Congratulations!

I love it! Your son has talent. Send him to me. lol.

Good idea, your son did a great job!

Bake that son his favorite pie he deserves it for such a fine job for his Mom.

Very nice job and $15 well spent. Enjoy your new desk.
