    I already had a folding table and had a friend who added bed risers to hers so I went to the Thrift Store and bought some and did the same thing. It really works!!!!
    juat a suggestion for others who have linited space or do not want to buy a table for cutting only :-D
    I have done this also. Inexpensive and so easy to do.

    I love my bed risers too. I did the same thing with my table. Makes the perfect height for cutting and saves that back! I got my risers at the Dollar General store. You might also try there. I lucked out.....mine were on clearance! :-)

    I would like some white risers. I have only found black around here. All my sewing furniture is white:(
    I want to raise what was the dresser in a bedroom. Bed is long gone and room is now for sewing only. I am tall and the dresser needs to be somewhat taller.
