Sewing room update.

We finished the painting pretty quickly in the sewing room and then I took a few days putting everything back tidily. We still have some painting to do - the windows and the door - but that will wait until we get some warmer weather.


The windows still need painting. The walls were repainted white but the pine panelling was given one coat of hot pink gloss. We left it at one as the grain of the wood still showed through and the paint looked like a coat of stain, rather than a solid block of bright pink, which we would have got if we'd done two coats. This photograph is taken from the doorway.



I finally got around to labelling my embroidery floss boxes. This is on the wall opposite the window, on the left of the doorway.

























We bought these two new tall cupboards to give me some more storage. The bottom three shelves in each cupboard contain my fabric stash. It looks a bit pitiful doesn't it, but I'm determined to use up the fabric I've got before investing in much more.

So glad your painting is done and you are settled in again. It looks like you have everything you could need all organized nicely and ready to use. Enjoy!
