Hi, I bought a peg board and painted it purple to give it color. Then I went to the local Payless shoe store and got a bunch of differnt size shoe boxes which I labeled until I have time to decorate them with what is in the box. Now when my husband wants a needle or safety pin he can find it by himself. Oh the boxes are on some inexpensive shelves from Lowes. Patterns are in see thru shoe boxes that are divided by toddler, craft, etc. This is how I did my sewing room. I do other crafts which I am in the process of setting up in the sewing room.
