Whether it’s to frame a beautiful view or for a more practical purpose like making the most of dead space or adding extra storage, a window seat can be a great addition to your home. It’s also more cost effective than a sofa. Here’s what you need to think about...
After two years of sewing in small apartments, where my sewing items were spread through out the space, I'm happy to share that I finally have a dedicated room just for sewing again 🥳🙌🏻 This is technically my 7th time setting up an area for sewing in the last 10 years. I've sewn in almost every room of a house now - Dining room, kitchen, loft, bedrooms...All of that moving and setting up from space to space has taught me a lot about what I find most necessary for an enjoyable sewing experience. I hope you find this information helpful too! In this post I will link to as many items as I can - Everything linked is underlined and in bold in this post. If I missed anything, you can reach out to me at [email protected]. I'm happy to share! This new space is on the small side - 10ft x 10ft to be exact. I did a lot of planning beforehand to determine what I would be able to fit in my new space. There were some sacrifices and compromises made, but overall I'm so happy with how it turned out. One thing that was a non-negotiable in the new space was a counter height pressing and cutting table. If you're on the tall side and also experience lower back pain then you understand why. I planned to DIY something - Even buying the supplies not once, but two times to make it 😅 Unfortunately, neither idea fully panned out. I was not only feeling frustrated about that, but feeling very overwhelmed by new house shenanigans (ie: unpacking, unreliable contractors, and, oh yeah, black mold) that I decided I just wanted something pre-built and ready-to-go. I searched for kitchen islands online and found this gorgeous one on West Elm. It was the perfect dimensions as well (30" x 50") - Not too big, not too small. I could comfortably fit my 24" x 36" cutting mat or six of my Oliso Pressing Tiles on it. The kitchen island has a marble top (West Elm carries a wood top option as well) and open shelves on one side with plenty of room for storing stuff. I love it SO MUCH. It's even more stunning in person. The rug underneath the kitchen island is from Rugs Direct HERE. I got the 3' 6" x 5' 6" size. The base of the kitchen island is metal allowing me to use magnetic hooks to hang my Olfa rotary cutter and most frequently used 6 1/2" x 12 1/2" Creative Grids ruler from. Because the less space I take up on my work surface with sewing notions, the better! I realize this island is on the pricey side so I'm linking to another really great option from Ikea: Tornviken Kitchen Island. I love this island as well! The next most important thing I wanted to include in my space was a design wall. I have been using floors or beds for the last five years to lay out my quilt blocks so I was pretty excited when I realized I had the wall space for a design wall. Felt Right reached out asking if I wanted to try out their felt tiles and I jumped at the opportunity. I went with their 12" square Parellel tiles in Latte and created a basketweave pattern with them. The design wall measures 72" x 84" - The perfect size for all the throw size quilts I make. Felt Right also gave me a discount code for you all to use! You can save 10% on your own Felt Right design wall with the discount code PENANDPAPER10. This is an affliate code so I will recieve a small commission on any purchases made with it. You might be wondering why I went with so many neutral colors in my space...Something I've realized about myself recently is that I get easily overwhelmed by a lot of color in my living or sewing areas. Which is ironic because I LOVE color. I think, because I regularly work with a lot of color, that having both colorful quilts and a colorful space around me 24/7 is just too much. Going with a neutral color pallete to balance out all the colorful fabric I regularly sew with was important. Another item I wanted to include in my new space were these Ikea Skadis pegboards. This is the fourth space I've used them in and definitely won't be my last. They come in various sizes and are so customizeable. I hung three 22" x 30" pegboards in a column and put my most used rulers on it. I also used the Skadis containers on the pegboards to store all of my binding clips, needles, diagonal seam tape, scissors, etc. I really wanted to have an extra long desk along the wall with my window so I combined the Alex drawers I already owned and bought a countertop from Ikea to create it. The total length is 98". I love that this can serve as another area that I can also cut or press at. The lamp on my desk in the image above is from Canvas. If you regularly film videos for social media then I highly recommend checking them out! My desk chair is also from Ikea and the sewing machine is a Janome Memory Craft 9450 QCP. I store most of my fabric in these Ikea cabinets that were gifted to me by my mom. I've had them for about 5 years now and they've held up great! The cabinets are from Ikea's Hemnes collection. Ikea no longer sells the one on the right, but you can find the one on the left HERE. Most of the baskets in the cabinets are from Target HERE and HERE. The jars that I'm storing my thread in is from Ikea HERE. I had some wall space behind my door that I wanted to utilize so I decided to put up towel bars to hang up some of my favorite quilts. The quilts that are currently hung up are Up North, Fresh as a Daisy, and Forest Fungi. This area could have been used for a more fuctional purpose, but I love how the quilts add some color to the space. And, if I get tired of these specific colors/quilts, I can easily swap them out for different ones. Last, but not least I wanted to share the set up in my closet. On one side of the closet is an Ikea Kallax and some Ikea Dronjon containers for storing my solids. As you can tell, I put no effort in making these bins look pretty. I just shove the fabric in and go. On top of the Kallax I've displayed some of my most prized possesions - My cheese puff barrel filled with Auriful spools all sent by Instagram followers, a Lego sewing maching that my BFF Sewtopia gave me, and books/magazines either I or quilt-y friends of mine have been featured in. Maybe the least exciting part of my room is on the other side of my closet where I'm storing my cutting mats*, vacuum, and printer. *I've since rotated the cutting mats so they're laying horizontal to the floor - Sharing for anyone who might have been worried about them 😉 UPDATE - I got some requests for a visual of the layout of my room so that's below. Everything shown is to scale. And that's it! If there are any other items you want more information on, feel free to email me at [email protected]!
It's not breaking news by any means; everyone knows multi-purpose furniture is epic, and most people probably own at least one thing in their home that has more than one purpose
the design of the plus one berlin space brings together functionality, flexibility and showcases not only the re-use of materials but also how forms and units can be designed for multiple uses. the furniture is not furniture anymore, but elements fully connected by function not only to the space itself but to other elements.
