Don't be hatin. My new craft table

This is my new craft table. My husband built it on top of a iron board frame so it can be folded up and hang on the wall when I need it out of the way. Its 36 inches deep and 2.5 yards long. As you can see, I can lay out a whole dress pattern and leave it there when I have to walk away.
 I use to use the dining table, but if I was cutting out a tricky pattern and needed to stop to go do something else I couldnt leave my work on the table. Now I can leave it for ever if I want! 


Loving my new craft room!
