Today
the alien that...My Father said I really needed a proper table in my room to sew on. The one I was using had to be propped up on boxes to be at the height I needed.
So in pictures is my sewing space before. Yes I know it looks a mess, but I did know where everything was.
My Father did some work at a charity shop warehouse and suggested we go there to see if I could find a table. I knew exactly what kind of table I wanted. Above anything it had to have draws! We looked round the back and found the one featured! It was a little damaged, but nothing some super glue couldn't fix!
So now my new sewing space
 |
| The table is 3ft7 long by 2ft3 wide and high |
 |
| My cutting mat now has a space to rest, along with some tubs and jars for scraps |
 |
| Under table shelving to hold my sewing boxes, baskets and tubs |
 |
| Top draw for my always used items..no chocolates, but buttons! |
 |
| My fabric box of FQ's |
 |
| Another Box of FQ's and the smaller box houses thread and ribbon |
 |
| The previous sewing table now home to my sketchbooks and fabric remnants |
 |
| Meters and half meter fabric |
 |
| The print 1/2 yards and some cold meats (sweets) |
 |
| Jano with his current cover... |
 |
| Jano without the cover |
The table has an inside shelving unit...which wasn't attached when we got the table so that had to be fixed back on. Three deep draws, which now hold my fabric boxes. I can easily get to my tower and that has fabric in it too. The table I used to sew on is now beside it....you can see how low it was and how much it needed propping! Jano is very happy with having a table to sit on now.
So now onto the GIVEAWAY.
One lucky person will receive a charm pack or half yard of their choice, shipped directly to their home from the website. All you have to do is correctly guess how much the table cost UK price. The person who guesses either the exact amount or closest to it wins. This will stay open until the 21st. I'll pick a winner and email the person for their address.
Good luck! =D
Since it was a charity shop.....I'm guessing on the short side.....65 Euro?
ReplyDeleteWhatever the cost.....it's perfect for your room. Holds everything nicely, too! Yay!
nice new table! the buttons are almost as good as chocolate :)
ReplyDeletewhat a fun giveaway! unfortunately, I'm not the least bit familiar with UK pricing, but I'll guess you paid 12 {I only know how to make $ with my keyboard, haha}
I think you got a great deal at 15 pounds. Fun giveaway!!
ReplyDeleteOh My Goodness, Cherie, I think I see a floor in your sewing room now! LOL....what a wonderful Papa you have and that is one fabulous perch for Jano! Don't have clue what you got it for but in US Dollars I would say about $65....maybe that is around 75 or 80 pounds???
ReplyDeleteI think a steal of 25 pounds would definitely be worth it for this table.
ReplyDeleteI'm going with a great deal as well and random.. 22UK dollars -- sorry, US only types $ lol
ReplyDeleteWhat a difference it makes to have a proper place to set up your sewing space. I will guess that this must have been a REALLY good bargain or you wouldn't have asked the question. I guess 12 pounds.
ReplyDeleteit was made for your room - it looks great and will be so much better for you to sew on! Charity shop finds are the best: I'm guessing £10
ReplyDeleteYour new space looks great!
ReplyDeleteI'd say the table was £25...
WOW what a transformation! Great sewing space now for you - wish mine looked like that. I guess you paid about £10 for your table - it's just perfect for your machine
ReplyDeleteI think your Dad has an eye for a bargain and paid £10!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great makeover! You will feel the benefit of that table or your back will. I love the photos of Jano with and without cover! Hmm a price??? I think £12.00.
ReplyDeleteI guess £8 because it was a charity shop find, and I got a similar one myself for that price. You are so generous with your giveaways! <3
ReplyDeleteIt looks awesome! Can you come over and clean the rest of my studio! :)
ReplyDeleteCan you come and do that with mine please thanks cherie xx
ReplyDeleteI'd guess about 18 pounds. Maybe less though... maybe it was free!
ReplyDeleteI was going to say 15 quid but that has already been guessed so I will say 17 quid, though I am doubting that now and. Well done you look a lot more organised now. What about the pile of WiP's on the bed you showed a couple weeks ago - do they have a new home yet!!! Great giveaway Cherie!
ReplyDeleteI'd guess 13 pounds. Looking good there!
ReplyDeleteYour room looks great--thanks for sharing at Craft Buds! I'm going to go low and guess... 3 pounds. Maybe it was a steal!
ReplyDeleteOk I'm going to guess £5 or less as your Dad did some work there :). Loving scrappy blocks may do some myself x
