Building my Historical Sewing Room & Tour 🪡

In this video I create the historical sewing room of my dreams. Some of you may know that I recently moved (nj to va) and thus have had a major upgrade in my sewing space. I loved my old sewing room with a passion, however it was TINY tiny. Now I have room for my cutting table, a dedicated sewing desk, an editing desk (it's not fun moving a 50lb sewing machine every time I have to edit or work lol) and I even have my own fireplace!? Can't get much more cozy than that. I even have build-ins for all my dress history literature! like isn't that the American dream right there? I feel like I won the lottery with this set up. The majority of the furniture in my sewing room is reproduction English colonial furniture that was ultra popular up until the 1990s. Now all you see in furniture stores is that ugly ass grey washed/painted, faked distressed modern farmhouse ish and word signs that say "gather" and "our story" in that really swishy font I loathe. Anyway, I purchased everything from estate sales, auctions or ebay and no piece was more than $125.
