Wanted to share a neat thing that my husband put together for me.  Decorating cookies is a fairly new hobby for me but it was taking over my kitchen which is very small with limited counter space.  We found this pre-fab cabinet and it has made it so much easier to indulge my addiction.  I can store all my stuff (and in eight months of doing this, I have collected an amazing amount of stuff) and have additional work space when I need it.  When I am not decorating, close the doors and the kitchen returns to normal.

Great. Thanks for sharing - I'm thinking of something like that to hide my husband's "work area" that he likes to leave all over the kitchen table! 

Taking pictures is still in the learning curve for me so you might not have noticed that the back of the drop leaf shelf has a power strip that has three outlets.  There are also two large shelves underneath that hold my chocolate crockpot. dehydrator and airbrush as well as a few other bulky items.  Sauder Furniture calls it a "Craft Armoire".

I love this!  I use an armoire for storing cookie stuff...but don't have the drop table for workspace.  I still clutter up my dining table for days on end when I have the urge to cookie.  Yours is perfect!  

Such a fabulous idea...I want one!!  I am lucky enough to have my own craft room, my husband suggested it after we recently moved country (i think he felt guilty)  It's a long way from the kitchen but it may well end up as a cookie decorating room too

This is great! I have a tiny kitchen, but some adjoining dining room space, so I  recently purchased a drop-leaf... um, well drop leaf, from Ikea. It is just a wooden work surface that hangs flat against the wall. It is hinged so you can flip it up, and there is a small triangular bracket you swing out to keep it up. I too am hoping to get an armoire, but never knew I could get one with a good-sized decorating table built in. Thanks
