I just back from a five day stint in Fairbanks for a family funeral. While I was gone my husband built a wall in the garage and made me a sewing room complete with faux bamboo flooring, new sewing table, metal shelf, and fun paint colors. I had no idea he was planning on this. What a surprise to come back to this. He still has to install a light and a piece of trim but he said I could start moving my stuff in. I love the paint colors. Yes, it's an ugly heater but I am in a garage.
This is the current sewing room. Right now it's full of garage items. He had to move it somewhere while he worked.
Wow is right! I bet he's getting a big Thank You!
ReplyDeleteWow indeed. Can your husband come and do some work at my place?
ReplyDeleteHow thoughtful, aren't those the best surprises? I am sorry for the occasion for you to be away from home but give that man a hug!!! Enjoy the new space.

ReplyDeleteI'm guessing he just racked up a LOT of brownie points LOL
NICE surprise. I'm sorry you were away for that reason, but WOW what a homecoming.
ReplyDeleteMaybe when you're settled, you can explain the layout. I'm confused about the before and look forward to the after.
Is the garage insulated?! I assume so :-)
Amazing job and what a surprise for you.
ReplyDeleteHe's a keeper!
ReplyDeleteGreat to have husbands who support our hobby. The heater looks fine. Too cold in our sewing space isn't fun.
ReplyDeleteVery nice! Congrats on your new sewing space!!!
ReplyDeleteThat is AWESOME!!! He is soooo thoughtful. He comes back from trips with fabric for you and now he surprises you with your own sewing room. He is definitely a keeper!!
ReplyDeleteToo wonderful! A space all your own -- and what fun that it was a surprise!
ReplyDeleteOMG, I thought I was the only one in America with one of those crazy heaters. Ours is in the basement family room and there was just no getting around it.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your new digs. Watch your productivity soar, really! You think you are sewing lots now - wait till you have your little hideaway in production mode.
Ah that is really nice :)
ReplyDeleteYou will definitely enjoy it.
How does he know what you want? I'm looking forward to more posts about this room.
ReplyDeleteWow!!! What a guy. I am super jealous!
ReplyDeleteWow! What a nice guy! My husband blew all his creativity when he proposed! HA!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful husband you have! Great space for all your creativity.
ReplyDeleteWow is about right...hopefully mine will do something similar a couple of years from now, with the space in our 3 BR home being at a premium, with 3 kids...
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! And welcome back. I've missed your posts.
Holy mackeral! Your husband needs to have a talk with my husband...please? What a great guy!
ReplyDeleteIn the works of EnVogue and Salt and Peppa...Whatta man, whatta man, what a mighty good man!
ReplyDeleteYOu know what you've started right?
ReplyDeleteA million husbands are being bombarded with "This woman's husband made her a sewing room, why don't you make me a sewing room" As it should be. Enjoy your sewing room, you have a lovely husband.

Wow, that's so thoughtful! Enjoy your new room. I'm already so impressed that your husband buys you fabric when he's on business trips. Wow I'm speechless! Chantal.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet husband. Such a nice surprise.
ReplyDeleteLook at all the comments! Do all the seamstresses appreciate this??? for sure.
ReplyDeleteThat man deserves creme brulee.
How wonderful! My dad put up a wall in the garage for my mom's sewing room and an office for him. My sister and I helped, and we came up with a song for the construction and everything! Good memories!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the new sewing room. YOiur huysband is a keeper!
ReplyDeleteWow is right. My husband can't figure out how to put up a towel rack.
ReplyDeleteHm..... I think he might love you.
ReplyDeleteDamn! You oughta keep that guy.
ReplyDeleteWow what an awesome surprise! Maybe you can Bedazzle the heater.
ReplyDeleteHe's awesome !! My hubby is pretty handy with the hammer too.... here is what he built me last year: http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/gg205/Kip_n_crew/sewingroomcabinet001.jpg

ReplyDeleteWow!!! What a guy. Better keep him around. He buys you material and builds you sewing rooms. Does it get any better?
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful surprise to come home to! I know you'll put it to good use. I'm sorry for your loss.
ReplyDeleteI agree with everyone else, your husband is awesome! He doesn't by any chance have a single brother living in NYC does he? ;)
ReplyDeleteThe new sewing room is so awesome! What a fantastic surprise!
ReplyDeleteWOW! That guy is definitely a keeper!!! How thoughtful! You Alaskans never cease to amaze me. What is faux bamboo flooring made of?
