Extreme Sewing Room Makeover Pt 2: Gathering the Materials

I have an idea in my head of what I'm going to do.

Cutting Area:

* I am going to put a peg board above my cutting table, but put a smaller table over there. This will get lots of items off of my table and our of drawers and up where I can see them.

* I am going to add PVC pipe to the legs of the table to raise it to a better cutting height. This will hopefully help with my back pain.

Peg Board Area:

* Hooks/baskets for: rulers, scissors/rotary cutters, ribbon, sharps, etc

* Hang up small clip boards with daily, weekly, and monthly to-do lists.

Fabric Storage:

* I am using Fabric Organizers to roll my fabric on (think mini fabric bolts at the store).

* I am going to put 2 shelves above my sewing table to show off my fabric and keep it off the floor and free up some shelves.

* I am going to put individual projects in their own tote and only work on the "tote projects" without adding any new ones to it until a tote is freed up from a finished project.

That will be a good start and chunk of my organization.

Here is what I have so far.

These are the totes for my individual projects.

Here are my supplies for the peg board and the two shelves (plus a handyman).

(paint, trim, peg board, wood for backing of peg board, C clamps, shelf brackets, and 2 boards for shelves)

Here is some of my fabric rolled onto the fabric organizers.
