Title: At last!
Post by: Mick on April 05, 2020, 22:01:26 PM

It was last November that my son and his OH decided to move into a place of their own, leaving our attic bedroom, where they had been living, spare.

So the plan was, a quick coat of paint, a bed settee for visitors, and a little sewing corner for Mick to call his own.
Easy job, be done in no time.

Six months later it's almost finished.   :[

It may be small, minimal even, but it's mine...

The pictures, they're invisible.... :'(

Congratulations on the space. Trying to invent some here.

@Mick you must have conferred with @Iminei about posting invisibuble photos - she's the only other one who does that  :S

Great looking space @Mick and I hope it won't get too hot up there in the summer.  I see that you have raised the bank of sockets up the wall and that is what I intend to do for my computer and the five other components that have plugs.

My sewing space is in the loft and it does get very hot in the summer. I have a velux window and I must get round to making a blind for it. I also need a fan on very hot days.

To be fair, on hot days anywhere is hot. My hut is unbearable in high summer and I often don't go in for days  -<

I'm really envious of those plugs on the wall and the angle lamp.  So much space, just love it. Can  we have a photo this time next year though ;)

@Mick   Love your neat and tidy space.
Noticed your cute mini pressing board - did you make that yourself?
