This sewing machine is quite old, but it''s very sturdy and easy to use. I always have much fun with it. Unfortunately, due to its long use, its wood has been worn out. So I decided to make it pretty again!
I made a blue sky with white clouds in the door's front side (same design as my blog's background, it's a pattern I really like), and put black and white polka-dots in the inside, and decorated that sewing supplies holder with beads and a black ribbon. I used more polka-dots and a checkered pattern for the table. And found a gorgeous black wood pattern for the sides.
It was a very much fun project for this summer holidays, and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. I hope my grandma can see it from Heaven and approves what I did.. ♥

Singer is great! My Godmother have almost the same sewing machine and it's still in good condition.
I have one too, it's also so old, but it's typical polish sewing machine, from our brand Łucznik(Saggitarius)- but it's also good brand.
Old ones are the best. My friend has new, plastic [sic!] sewing machine and I can't understand it...
I love those clouds you made. It makes this box (cabinet?)more happy & cute too.
The sewing machine is adorable!!!!!
I cant believe you recreate it so nicely!!!
Good job! :)

Aw dear it's such a wonderful redesign! It's so nice that it has such a useful table with it and it looks fantastic. I love the rim and bow you put on your container boxes, too! I'm sure your grandma is very pleased to see she gave it to such a loving home. I happen to like my new .. plastic sewing machine and I think it's quite good quality as the old ones and it's also singer ^^;; but I do admit I wish it came with a table~! I think the old Singer and new Singer are very similar, though, with settings. I like the foot pedal best on Singer because you have more control over the speed. Some new cheap or off brand machines have just a fast speed which isn't nice when I need more control XD
I love it! The ribbon is such a cute detail and the cloud design is lovely.
