    When we upgrade to a flat screen TV, I’m going to move the TV armoire into the kitchen and use it as a pantry/cabinet for dishes. Thanks for the ideas!

    Fantastic ideas, love your selection of pieces BUT my wife would die if I made her that sewing station. I will have to find a cupboard to do up for her. Lucky for us we have our city council chuck out soon and you can always find great furniture then 🙂 Mark
