Organizing My Mom’s Sewing Room

Last week I told you how I did some organizing for my mom back in January.  I shared her

knitting/crocheting storage room

with you and I still plan to show you a few more spaces in her home as well.

This post is showcasing her recently organized sewing room:

It’s certainly nothing too fancy and was done on a low budget, but this room now packs a lot of organization, which is what this room needed.   The black buckets were $1.00 at Target.  They had a spider man logo on them and my dad spray painted them black.

If you’re looking for inexpensive ways to organize, peg boards are a great option!  I’ve used them to organize my

clients craft supply center

, I’ve also created myself a

gift wrap station

with peg board.  You can use them for so many different things.  I have plans to do more with peg boards in the future. 

The minute I walked into my mom’s sewing room I knew that peg board was exactly what she needed.

Check out the before photo’s:

and the NOW…

I love glass jars.  If you read my blog often, then you know that I use them a lot.

The dresser holds all kinds of different supplies that my mom uses often…

separated in the drawers by dollar tree bins.

One of the dresser drawers holds patterns.

A rod was added to hang items that my mom is working on.  She always has pants, dresses, gowns, etc. that she’s altering for customers.  My mom is an amazing seamstress!  I watch her work on gorgeous wedding gowns, pulling them apart to alter them and I get so nervous (I know I’d be scared to ruin them and not be able to fix them.) BUT she ALWAYS makes them better!! :)

Remember back in the

knitting/crocheting storage room

post, I told you that a lot of the material that was in the closet was moved into bins into my mom’s basement?

This is just a few of the bins.

She has many more bins in this room.  She’s got a TON of material!  She could probably open up her own fabric store pretty soon ;) lol!

The material is separated by type.

Batting and stuffing has it’s own bin as well.

Now for the before and after’s together of this updated sewing room:

and…

That’s it, my mom’s sewing room now organized. 

Come back soon to see her hall closet re-do.  I turned it into a craft storage closet and it’s so much better than before.

Next week is the
