Renovations almost finished

We've been doing some renovations to my sewing room and thought I would share some photos. We removed the carpet and wallpaper - put down wood flooring and painted the room a light purplish-gray. My hubby also built the L-shaped counter tops which I love. He still has drawers to make for the two end cupboards but bought the wood today for that job.

Sorry to send so many - too excited I guess! Hubby put in grommets to help get rid of the sewing machine cords all over the counter top. He also put some strips (like a small box tube) down the wall to hide the cords from the lights under the wall shelf unit. I have room for bins/totes/drawer thingees under the counter top, too so lots of storage. Not much room for my serger but I can move over the quilting machine beside it whenever I wish to serge. It's not perfect but so much better than the old sewing area!

The room is 11' x 13' so not huge but certainly workable. I used to have two industrial machines where the L-shaped counter top now is. Then I bought another embroidery machine and no where to put it! So the industrial ones were sold and the renovations began!
