Sewing Table
I have come to the conclusion that I need a portable sewing table A.S.A.P.! Almost two months ago. We turned our "everything room" into a guest bedroom. Which means I no longer have a place to sew, I thought about purchasing a portable table, which would actually work out fine, seeing how I could use the table for other use if need be...Earlier this week I decided to do a Google search for a portable sewing tables and to my surprise they actually have some pretty cool sewing tables. I will admit that most of them are pretty pricey and I have been thinking about actually recreating the table myself...When I think of the perfect portable sewing table I am actually thinking of a table that would fit in our bedroom or our back hallway. I am not longing for a desk style. I would really prefer a sewing table that could collapse. The perfect table would be able to house all of my sewing and crafts material...

Do you have a sewing/craft room or area?

I totally understand what you mean about the need for a sewing table, I saw some collapsible tables in Ikea. I can't say how strong they are but maybe they run a little cheaper than the contenders you have here. I decided on my table because it is small and will fit in the space I am claiming (I haven't asked my family how they feel about it yet) for my sewing area. I really hope you find one you love and at a price you can't beat! I really like the first and fifth tables.

ReplyDeleteThe fifth table is from IKEA and is a little over $150.00. I really do not want to spend a lot of money on a table right now. However, I am still looking for quality and storage space. I am also trying to claim a craft space in our home :). I will keep you updated :).
I came across this problem a few months ago. I had been using an old computer desk, but that didn't give me the elbow room I needed. I also didn't like that it was hanging out in the middle of the family room.
ReplyDeleteWe got a flat screen TV and hung it on the wall. That freed up the fireplace nook (where had our TV, not a fireplace:) for a sewing table.
I looked all over online and in stores and didn't find a table I loved. My hubs and I talked about just building one. My grandma recently passed away, and I inherited HER sewing table. I got my love of sewing from her. Her table fit the nook PERFECTLY, and now I get to spend hours sewing with my grandma!
I had to fix a few things and add some storage solutions, but I love it. I'm a happy crafter! :)
Wow. Longest.Comment.Ever. Sorry! :)

Love the new tables. I have the shell of an old collasable table. I want to do more sewing also ... Check Ebay and Overstock.com
ReplyDeleteThe one that folds down looks pretty nifty!
