I don't think one can ever have too many drawers so this is a perfect set-up in my opinion. You did a fantastic job on rehabbing the cabinets and what a job that was! They look practically brand new ... but I guess you did make them "brand new". I am extremely jealous of your sewing room/studio. If only I had the room and could be lucky enough to stumble upon library files ... and be lucky enough to live near you for mentoring.

Holy moly!! Great use of those Library card cabinets. Not only did you save a piece of history, you also have a great looking sewing room. Awesome job!! Love your space.

I love your idea with the library file drawers! Why... you've even painted them the same color as my office/sewing desk! If you don't mind, would you please pack those up and send them to me. I'll gladly pay the freight costs.

This is fabulous.... My general contractor recently did restoration work for state building and has several old book shelves with glass doors from law library. He is giving me some for my sewing room when I move. I'm very excited to put them to use in my new sewing room. I love your repurposing idea...just awesome... Dream room..
