Show me your cutting table!!

Mine is a custom made one by my husband. My sewing room looks a lot different these days. My sewing machine has relocated and I expanded into what was the guest room.
It is 4' x 5', a plywood base and a Formica top. He also made the shelf above my table as well as the cabinet, the wicker drawer cabinet it sits on was bought at a local store.

Yes, he builds it and I love it. He did the same thing for my Bailey Pro 15, made a table for it to sit in. My sewing machine in in the closet, we took off the doors and he built a desk into it to give me more room to walk around.

Mine is from IKEA Kallax. 4.5x6’. Used 1” melamine that we found at Home Depot for $20. Added two cup holders for my drinks, and a trash can.DH put it on casters so it’s easily moved, and the whole thing is put together so it can easily be taken apart in the event we ever move

[ATTACH=CONFIG]593229[/ATTACH]I bought 3 of these shelves from Target. 2 are back to back horizontally for my cutting table. We were going to put casters under them, but I like this height for my body. The third set of shelves do have the casters. I have made it into a large pressing area.

I have enjoyed using the Norden Gateleg Table from Ikea. (see link above for photo and info). It is made of birchwood. I added caster wheels to raise it up and make it mobile. It is perfect for small spaces because the 2 leafs fold down when not in use. The 6 drawers in the middle go across the width of the table and give plenty of storage space for quilting notions.

I would suggest something like Cindi has. Ikea has all kinds of things like that. Not what you asked for but I just bought some of the Ikea spice shelves to mount on my wall to keep my rulers in. I currently have a peg board which is ok but it seems the ruler I always need it the one on the back of the peg. Also some of my rulers don't have holes in them for hanging. I want to paint them white before I put them up. I saw it on pinterest. So many interesting ideas out there. Ikea is about 5 miles from me, so I can go often. I have physical therapy about 1/2 mile from Ikea, so I might go today.
