Come + Sew at our Table.

Our table serves as the central hub for our family. Not only do we gather to eat our meals together at our table but we also do most of our school work there. So I will be sharing parts of our home schooling journey as well.

One of my summer goals has been to create spaces for my children's interests before school starts. That can be hard to do in our small living space but, after seeing some ideas on Pinterest, I decided to create a sewing station for my oldest daughter. She loves to sew but it was always such a pain to pull all the tubs out of the closet. Since sewing is a special interest of her's I want to encourage it as much as possible. And now I can! This is one way for her to be creative without limitations. And it just so  happens to count as school under 'Special Interests'.

Thanks to this utility cart from Ikea and some cheap organizing containers from Target, we were able to create the perfect sewing station for her.

We have this weird space under this counter that never gets utilized. The cart fits perfectly in the corner, right next to an outlet. She can simply set up the sewing machine and access her supplies. 

And, it's not a complete eye sore. If it is ever in the way we can simply wheel it into a closet.
