Organized Sewing Room

Having a large laundry room on the main floor, close to my computer area has been one of my favorite things about this house. I can watch my Craftsy.com classes, and choose to sew or knit with all my materials close at hand.

We bought some pre-cut 1/8 inch pegboard and I painted them in a melamine type paint. I chose a robin's egg blue, which seemed to pop on the tan walls.

The water heater is on the wall behind the striped curtain. We were able to buy a flexible velcro curtain rod, and by pinching some of the excess material, I made some pleats to add a little interest to the curtain, where I needed it. I also painted the legs on an Ikea dining room table, and painted an old sewing machine cabinet, too.

I am very surprised at how easy it is to find all my tools and to put them away when my sewing session is over. Is this how organized people live? I like it!
