I agree - your machine looks "boxed in" from the left & the back. How will you manage handling the fabric? Can you switch & put your computer on the little desk & use the table for your machine?

My thoughts exactly.. Move your machine over to the computer desk..

~Get clear plastic totes for your fabric for the shelf..
~ get a bunch of clipboards for those papers you have taped to the walls
~rolling cart drawers if you can find room under tables, desks will give you added storage..
~shelving units on walls might help with storage
~ peg board maybe..

I have a peg board on the wall behind my cutting table also. I use it to hang all of my rulers (except the 20"), templates and anything else that can "hang". Going to get a larger board cut so that I can hang more stuff.

I don't really have anything more to offer. I have an extremely small room. I do hang my rulers on nails behind my cutting table.

I did want to say that I love the paint job on your walls.

Yep, you will need more room behind your machine. If it can't stay pulled out all the time, maybe add locking castors or furniture glides so you can easily pull out when needed.

Oh, I hadn't thought of using furniture glides...Great suggestion..Thank you!

stpatmom, thanks for the compliment....As I said, that was my sons room and he wanted me to put some kind of metalic accent paint on his walls...Adding a metalic to glaze just doesnt work well... So I just cross hatched it straight on lol..Not my first choice but, he loved it... Those are his dragons on the shelves too..Whaaa, I miss my baby lmao
