I sewed so much when the kids were home...five kids, with one daughter in gymnastics and I made all of her leotards.

You could totally fix up something like this and put it in a hallway or something. Very neat and tidy. Thinking of making another with a lighter pull out drawer that can come out all of the way and using it as a garden storage/potting table.Ribbithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01460673212389110633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930778534030920874.post-60342914472424702862013-07-08T12:36:26.347-04:002013-07-08T12:36:26.347-04:00That sounds like a very cool idea.

It had a drop down table for pinning patterns and cutting fabric, which hid a large cork board when it was folded up. There were cupboards, drawers and a pegboard back wall, and a "desk" that held the sewing machine, where the chair slid underneath.

They are excellent kids, except for when they're not. ;) Decided today to do the pull out shelf, but only have it pull out half way - reasoning - the sewing machine is 22 lbs. 25 if I have the embroidery arm attached. I don't feel I could make a fold down one sturdy enough. If I do it pull out, I could still keep the machine technically 'in' the cabinet which wouldn't be putting strain on a drawer. I think I bought drawer pulls that are too long, however. I'm going to try to put it together tonight and see what I get. I'm crazy excited.Ribbithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01460673212389110633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930778534030920874.post-42125092920567153522013-07-07T11:23:19.305-04:002013-07-07T11:23:19.305-04:00Hooray for upcycling.

I checked her this morning and found one nit that I missed, but no more live bugs. I'm going to sit her outside now that the rain has stopped and give another go at her. Hopefully the house isn't infested. If it was just isolated with her then I think we're okay. Now I'm just horridly terrified that I've infested myself. *groan*<br />Ribbithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01460673212389110633noreply@blogger.com
