Cupboard Space Ideas....

Great way to store your Craft and Sewing Treasures..

So if you have a free stand cupboard just a little bit of paint and some imagination and here is what the end result is......Perfect 

Great way to use up those cupboard doors.

Keeping Kids room is one multi tasking job each day.

Have a look at what you can place inside the wardrobe to make it easy for you.

A few of my friends who have down sized from their big homes into apartment living have resorted to using a Cupboard to Sew and to hold their Stash.

Great idea and you can still the room as a guest room.

Some might like to take off the doors and place a curtain across for easy access.

I can sit here all day and download ideas to present to you.

But some of us do have to work....lol

So enjoy your day everyone.

Happy Creating.....VQ

This will be another Job added to my Husbands List....lol

Happy Filling....VQ
