The workplace of the needlewoman is much more complicated than the standard one, and you can’t get by with a tabletop and a lamp. The craftswoman needs various little things at hand, which means that it is necessary to think through a storage system for them, convenient and beautiful. To solve this problem of organizing space is necessary in two stages: first at the scale of the room, and then at the scale of the workplace.
For those who sew, in addition to a table for a sewing machine, you also need a table for cutting material and working with details. When organizing a needlewoman’s workplace, try to use the walls next to the sewing table.
Table
The seamstress can easily adapt a computer table for her needs. Its drawers are suitable for storing materials, threads, tools. You can also arrange an additional storage system on hanging shelves. Small items are best arranged in separate boxes.
If you use not only a standard sewing machine, but also an overlock when sewing, you can take a corner computer table as the basis for the workplace for needlework. Does not allow a place? Pick up a compact table-cabinet, drawers are hidden behind its doors, in which you can remove a bunch of little things or arrange a storage system on the walls.
A dining table, a secretary, a bureau, and even a console table can also serve as a needlewoman’s workplace.
Is there room for a long table? Perfectly! Choose a table with two large cabinets that hide everything you need for work, and also use hanging shelves on the walls.
Armchair
If you sew, embroider, spend a lot of time at work, pay special attention to the chair when organizing the workplace of the needlewoman. If it is equipped with wheels, has an adjustable seat height and back deflection, you will be less tired at work. Of course, a good chair is expensive, but good health is even more expensive. An inconvenient fit leads not only to back pain, but also to spinal deformity.
Tip: The office chair can be decorated with special pockets for small things, fixing them on the armrests. This will immediately give it a cozy, “home” look.
Organization
Organizer - a system that allows, as its name implies, organize a variety of materials in such a way that it is convenient to use.
As the basis for the organizer at the needlewoman’s workplace, you can use fabric pockets, boxes, baskets, jars, shelving with drawers, glass containers of various shapes and sizes. The only thing that should unite them is a style solution, then your working corner will look neat and stylish.
Tip: The ideal option is to use boxes and jars of transparent material when organizing the workplace of the needlewoman, or under a transparent cover. If the boxes are opaque, stickers must be glued on them to inscribe what is contained there. You can also hang beautiful tags.
Organizers can be made independently and placed on the wall near the workplace for needlework. Such home-made designs are easy to expand as needed.
A great solution for wall storage is the metal grill. On such a board with the help of hooks and rails, you can arrange any items for needlework.
Shelvings, shelves or chests of drawers with drawers are excellent organizers.
Use roof rails - it’s convenient to attach baskets, tools and many of the little things necessary for work on them.
This is not the only “kitchen” device that is useful for making a corner for the craftswoman: a magnet for knives will perfectly hold scissors, rulers, screwdrivers and other metal tools.
