Popping in with an update on where I'm at in construction. It's been a slow moving project. I get 1 full day a week to work on it with a few single hours here and there throughout the week. The size of my new area is
7' x 10' , what used to be my dining room, but has never used as one. It's in an open floor plan that includes a large living room converted to sewing studio for me, and workshop area for dh.
The U shaped table I'm constructing will have 3 sections. The largest is, of course, my mani station. Next to that, in front of the window will be my make-up area, and to the right, will be a small section for my jewelry making supplies.
Anyway, my under stamping plate storage is almost complete. It's ingeniously designed using supplies meant for a totally different application. Have a look...

After I finish with plate storage, I'll be completing work on cotton ball storage (haha, yes, another idea that got turned into a project)
Just below this section of the table is the bottom part of an old bookcase, flipped up-side-down. There is a deep recess that's perfect for storing cotton balls, so I cut a rectangle door out of the table to access the recess. Now all I have to do is decide whether I want to use hinges on the door or do I want the access door to lift off...decisions...

I'm not sure how much longer this project will take. When I'm finished, I'll have to re-organize the space where my old mani station was and give that stolen space back to my sewing studio.
One thing is for sure, I cant wait to get back to my nails. After several construction accidents, one of which sent a screw through a nail, I went ahead and took them all down to a manageable working length. In addition to that, since I don't have time to maintain polish, I've been wearing the strongest polish known...
glitter.
A whole week wearing 2 coats of Milani Gold Glitz, 1 coat of a franken made from SinfulC All About You, topped with 2 coats of Seche, with nary any tip-wear.

Wow. Not *that* is a construction project! The cotton ball storage is great - and the plates, too. I'm totally jealous.

My goodness! You've been working like hell!!!! All for the sake of glamour <img></img> Amazing job!
<span>You should be so proud of yourself! It's going to be fantastic. It's an area I can only dream of. You can design and make everything to your own specifications is wonderful. Can't wait to see it completed. Keep us updated to your progress.</span>
the cotton ball thingy looks so nice! it's all going to look very professional!
wow - this is going to be so awesome when its finished! I love how you incorporated the dispay draweres for your stamp plates, and your wall racks are a smart use of wall space without taking up alot of room. I dream of having something like this one day.
Thank you everyone!
Reading through these comments I am reminded just how fortunate I am to be able to fulfill my heart's desire.
