And I love the storage options you shared.

We love Ikea, that's where my glass top designing table came from and a glass front white sideboard filled to the brim in my studio! Glad you had a good traffic day as that's not what I usually hear from my son, ugg.<br /><br />Glad to hear little Clara is better :)<br /><br />Have fun!

Its really awesome. I also have those wire basket organizers on wheels, have a few around my house and my studio. They're wonderful for holding tons of my supplies neatly in the closet.Nellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10722171048554566597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-795775338942020284.post-63930279661483893282009-12-18T15:39:49.335-05:002009-12-18T15:39:49.335-05:00Dawn,

We don't have one here! :-( We have cabinets in my office that we bought there years ago when we lived near one. They are so strong and durable! Easy to clean and you can fit them into many different contortions to fit your needs.

I loved the pictures of your field trip to IKEA. I'm only about 45 minutes to an hour away from there too (due North though) and my family loves taking a day to go and shop there.

And the legs for Brad's drafting table...they work great as a base for a yarn ball winder and yarn swift - one on each end of the top of the legs - and you get a little shelf on the bottom for a basket of yarn! All for only $30!!! Doesn't get better than that! ;-)<br />Have a great day.<br />Hugs,<br />DonnaBrynwood Needleworkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12025334306730418679noreply@blogger.com
