DIY Custom Sewing Desk 

What a loving father in law. So lucky. His son must take after him too😊

That is a great table. Your father in law did a great job.

Your Father-in-Law does beautiful work. I love the color of the tabletop. So Nice that you can add a leaf for extra sewing room. Thanks for Sharing!

This is such a great concept. From the moment I saw the thumbnail I knew it was a modified dining table. Great great great comcept

Great job making the table, but you are so fortunate to have such a beautiful sewing space.

Very nice. You and your father-in-law are so clever. Great job.

Very Clever, your Grandpa did a great job. Thank you for sharing.

I'm on the hunt for a table to do this as my sewing room is just about finished being remolded! This is my final step lol. Hopefully mine turns out half as beautiful as yours!!

Thank you I have a table I've just finished had to sand top,seal and painted and put up for sale with no interest now I know what I can do and turn it into my sewing machine table brilliant idea thank you,

Nice job! I'm looking at this to get ideas how to make something similar for my wife. Kudos to your father-in-law!

What a fantastic idea! So glad I found this.

Your Father In Law Is A Blackbelt and Great Job Sanding, Staining And Sealing, 👍🏾. I’m going to have to “borrow” some ideas from you, thx in advance, 👊🏾🇳🇬🇺🇸

I absolutely love you sewing table it is beautiful.

Very nice. Great "father-in-law!"

Great job 👏. You’ve given me lots of ideas as this is a project I’m keen to complete. thank you for sharing 🙏

Thank you for your video Andrea. Your father in law does beautiful work. After watching your video it inspired me to do the same with a small drop leaf Sauder sewing table. Granted, it is nothing like yours but it’ll do the job. I have a very small sewing/office room.

Excellent!!!!!! I may have to change my mind again about my sewing table. I need something that will not shake and vibrate when my machine is running. I'm excited again, and it wont be as expensive as I originally thought.

Thank you for sharing this information! I didn't realize that you had or still had the option for the table leaf! Great ideas, thank you! I am presently using a dining table, as well, however I think I may be having the same issue with the shoulders! Love your space!

This is so great, I love it.

What a great idea! Would be awesome to see a video of how it was made. Thanks for sharing 🥰

Brilliant idea 🥰👏

That is amazing!

love the table!

Brilliant idea!

Beautiful! Thank you for the info.

❤Great video I've been looking at alternative ideas to buying the extremely expentive sewing tables online and creating the flush top sewing area. This video is the perfect solution. One question. What is the knee lift used for? Thanks for the best idea ever. Your sewing table turned out beautifully.

Excellent craftsmanship on both your parts. Great table. I just subscribed.

Beautiful!

Great idea ❤️

Love it!

Fantastic table! I may have my husband make one for me 🤔 btw, I have a box almost identical to yours 😊

Lucky daughter in law!

Wow! What a great idea. My dining table looks almost like yours. Mine also comes with a leaf which we are not even using. I would love to use my table for my machine. As you said, it is VERY HEAVY! I don't think I can get that upstairs. I would have to relocate my sewing room to my dining room. hmmm! I would feel terrible if I changed tables. My husband made me a sewing table (farm like look to it.). He did work really hard on it. I really don't think I should part with it.

That is craftsman ship on both your parts. Great table. I thought oh it matches her dining table (some people sew in their dining room). But what are those decorative things on the opposite side. Drawers! Drooling might start. 🙄🙂

I have the exact table for my sewing machine table. My husband fit a piece of acrylic around my machine and cut it to fit the table. He also moved a bracket under the table. I can also add my leaf if I need. Love, love, love my table.

How do you change bobbin if it’s a front loader? And what if cables attach too low at side? Any ideas?

Looks great BUT how do you use your free arm??

What happens when you have to get another sewing machine? I want to do this on my butcher block countertop but I’m scared of the finality! 😱😍

How do you access your on off switch?

Looks great! We are just starting to look for a used table to do this with. Just wondering how you use the free arm though.

I love the idea of doing this, but then do you have to pull the whole machine out every time you need to change your bobbin?

what are the dimensions on your table? Joel in Florida
