I’m stealing back the playroom to make a sewing room!
So, come October I will have two in school full time and a wealth of time on my hands……bahahahaha yeah right! But maybe I will be able to snatch an hour or two to do some things for me that aren’t washing clothes or working.
To that end, I am planning to convert the kid’s playroom to more of a sewing room for me so that we can all use it.
These are a few of the things I’ve been coveting!
I’ve been eyeing up the Normann Copenaghen range from Lovethesign and have taken a real fancy to this clock, it’s going to be really important that I know what time it is as I can get very absorbed when I’m sewing and I don’t want to leave anyone waiting for Mummy at the school gates!
I’m also going to need a table, and I like this one because I want to make clothing and it will need to be big enough for me to lay out all the fabric. It’s quite expensive though, so I may have to make do with an old desk!
Next up, a chair, something comfy and able to move around on would help. Plus pretty of course! This is pink and a good cause.
Next up, curtains, and really, that should be my first sewing job shouldn’t it?! There is a wall painted green with vehicles all over so I think I should stick to the outdoor theme with some floral fabric. Heart beating a little faster at the prettiness, is it weird that I feel that way about fabric?!
It will also give me the perfect place to hang my beautiful bunting from Amy at Arty Apple!
And just because, I’m pretty sure a unicorn bag is needed to store bits in!
I wonder if I will ever actually manage to create my dream room?! Maybe I should photograph it all to document the room makeover and force me to actually do it.
This is a post written in collaboration with Lovethesign.
Oh you definitely should do this, how would the children feel about you reclaiming the playroom, just as a matter of interest?? I reckon if you shared the unicorn bag with your daughter, that would help!
