Sewing machine storage

My sewing machines//sergers are stored in a spare room which is a guest room for our son and DIL. Starting at the top left in white hard case is my Singer Stylist 11 serger. On top of it sits my Sew Steady table for my Singer Quantum L-500 sewing machine. Right top is my Serger tackle box with my sewing tackle box under it.

On left of 2nd shelf from top is the extension table for my Singer Superb sewing machine and free arm accessory extension for my L-500. Then is another large supply box (love it) It's really a tool box but makes the best sewing box! It holds such things as vac attachment for cleaning machines, serger feet, oil, pins, fray check--lots of frequently used gadgets/notions--you know, all that kind of stuff you want handy but not carry around in the smaller sewing boxes. 3rd shelf down has my Singer 5 Thread Serger (which BTW fits in a Brother Universal hard case). Next to that under the pink gingham sewing machine cover is my Singer Quantum L-500 sewing machine. On the bottom shelf is my box of practicing scraps. Under that is my project box of whatever I am sewing. And finally on the bottom right is my Singer Superb sewing machine. The steel shelves are two sets of: www.walmart.com/ip/Whitmor-Supreme-Small-3-Tier-Shelves-C...

 

Each shelf holds 250 lbs and are totally stable. I did order 4 additional connectors from the shelf company in order to stack and connect the poles spacing the shelves to fit my needs. While searching Walmart's site to find the shelves I bought I did notice that additional parts can be ordered right through Walmart. This kind of shelf system can be bought in many different sizes--very large to very small. I only had about 25 inches of space to work with which is why I bought the size I did. 2 sets of shelves contained 6 shelves but I only used 5. However, I could design the shelves to fit my very small space and make the height of each shelf the right height to fit my sewing machines. Perfect solution for me or anyone with a small home or no designated sewing room!

 

I did make the pink gingham cover on the Singer L-500. If you want a closer look, it's in another 'Set' titled "Sewed By Me."
