Renovating in Japan!! Creating a Mini Sewing Room

[@michellecornum5856]

Very NICE! Isn't it nice to have a space where your things can just be left out while you work! Lovely sewing room!

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Thank you 😊

[@tinamoreland434]

Billy, you could make a video talking about the paint drying and I would watch it. None of your videos have ever been boring. ❤️🥰

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Ah! Tina! You’re the sweetest ❤️❤️❤️ thank you!!

[@jackiejames4551]

It is nice having a room where you don't have to put all your sewing things away every day isn't it? I love your sewing room, it looks so clam and pretty.

[@szz22]

Amazing job on the sewing room assembly… and you just gave me so many ideas for my studio - the shelves and the sliding-door chest… with the added bonus of so many wonderful kimono styles! Billy, you make the best videos!

[@ruthpage2297]

Love the wallpaper, so calming…❤️👍🏠

[@BillyMatsunaga]

This wallpaper makes me very happy 💜

[@lenabreijer1311]

Wonderful sewing room! It helps so much to have a dedicated craft space where you can just close the door on a partially completed project. I love seeing people's work spaces come together. I always get ideas from that.

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Thank you!! 💙 a hobby space is definitely the best decision I’ve made the last 2 years 😊

[@hiwakoo]

Super geworden, bin ganz neidisch auf 2! japanische Bügeleisen . Die Tapete passt so gut zur Augenfarbe, allein dafür ein Daumen hoch😊

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Hihi! Dankeschön 💙

[@0odomo]

The room turned out really cute. The shelve makes a beautiful background. I also love your red/green look in the end of the video.

[@LycIrisAurora]

So lovely! The outlet cover plates matching the wallpaper especially made me smile. Also I wish I had more sliding door stuff myself, doors on cabinets really can be troublesome

[@sternenregen5489]

Nice! And don't worry about spiders. They are so important. And on the other side - the spider fears you !!

[@BillyMatsunaga]

When you watched that part you also must have seen me saying “she’s so cute”… 🕷 I love spiders ❤️❤️

[@chalkncheeseneeds723]

We call that room,the room of requirements,it looks so lovely!

[@mylanyoung]

I know nothing about renovating or flipping rooms but it was somehow very calming and comforting to watch you clean up and change the room! Love all the little unique touches such as the antique sewing box and outlet covers.

[@jstryon5120]

Loved this video. Especially the wall paper color. Thanks for sharing.

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Thank you 💙

[@antareslesage5611]

Yay! Your sewing room is very cute and feels so peaceful 🥰🥰🥰 I wish you lots of fun in your new space. And yes, having a dedicated space gives you a lot more time to work. Thank you for sharing. See you soon♥️♥️♥️

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Thank you ❤️

[@aletaschulz1108]

You and your husband did a great job in creating your sewing room. It looks more spacious than it most likely is.🤗💚

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Thank you 💚

[@theplussizecostumer]

It looks so good. Wish I could get mine looking so good. (Currently trying to get everything organized but I think I have way too much stuff.) I especially Love the wallpaper and the electrical plates. So aesthetically pleasing to the eye. 'sigh'

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Thank you ❤️ you’ll get there. I’m sure!

[@CherriesJubilee]

My sewing room is about 4 jo. I love the little details.

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Thank you 😊

Congratulations. That is a beautiful sewing room. Thank you for sharing your space. - Cathy (&, accidently, Steve), Ottawa/Bytown/Pimisi

Thank you 💙 I’m so happy to finally have this room!

[@SabineK.]

Dein Nähzimmer ist sehr schön geworden. Die Tapete ist klasse und besonders gefallen mir die Lichtschalter- und Steckdosenabdeckungen 🙂

[@charliecat5686]

Great job! Having a set space for work/hobby makes one a lot more productive. Fun video!

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Waaay more productive 😱❤️

[@camib2864]

The sewing room is lovely, the colors are so soothing as well.

[@ullaapelgren3383]

Looking great, love the wallpaper

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Thank you 😊

[@everlingaccessories7584]

Sliding door cupboard! Now I have to go hunting for one for myself.

[@charlarp]

I love the wallpaper! and the outlet cover with the curtains goes so well! What a pretty room!💕🇨🇦

[@vasil3ubr33]

Ahh, it's just great to have a dedicated place for your work! And to be able to make it cute as well is just awesome. Really loved the sewing box, it looks like a really neat storage solution!

[@elizabethsloan3192]

I’m in love with your irons and sewing box.

[@Needleandfur]

I love seeing other people's sewing rooms I always get massive sewing room envy. But then again I would never been seen of or heard from again if I did have one so perhaps it's for the best. I love the plug and light switch face plates - really pretty and suit the room so well.

[@BillyMatsunaga]

I love seeing other’s sewing rooms as well! But yeah, sometimes it’s for the best not to have one!

[@elyle]

This is beautiful! Thank you for filming the process 🙏

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Thanks for watching and commenting ❤️❤️

[@deborahf3738]

Wow, what perfect timing for your video. I have finally decided to use my living room, which is about the size of your room as a sewing/workshop. I already have shelves but need to clean all the other junk out...lol. I hope mine is as cute as yours. The spider, that was his apartment and now he is just checking out HIS new design....lolloololol. Thanks for your super cool video. :)))))))

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Haha! I hope he likes it ❤️ I’m pretty sure your workspace will turn out wonderful 😊

[@alwaysjiji7198]

yaaay for sewing rooms! I wish I had one! it's so pretty. I was geeking out over the switch covers!

[@daisanders82]

That's a cute sewing room I love the wallpaper

[@dynademerritt5337]

I can’t wait to have my own sewing room, this gives me a few ideas on what I’d like! Thanks! Also, the miyattsu guchi got me really bad 😂😂 that was funny, I’m gonna use that anytime my shirt sleeves rip like that

[@ChalilodimunAngel]

I just love the little appliance part with the flower (no idea how it's called), it's so cuuuute

[@myeramimclerie7869]

Love it 😍 I wish I had an extra room... My current (own, not-shared) living space is 15m²... Student life, yey~ 😑 Looking forward to spread out! 😌 Grüße aus Deutschland ~

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Good old student times! Been there, too. You’ll get through it ❤️❤️❤️

[@myeramimclerie7869]

Learn so much from your channel about kimonos

[@katarzynapolus7887]

I love your new sewing room! I sure does help a lot to have your own office :) I also got my own sewing room finished in April, and it's a huuuge difference. I don't have to worry about my cats or dogs being too interested in my fabrics or projects. I can just leave everything as it is, lock the door and relax. :)

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Oh, cats and dogs make it even more complicated! You must be so happy with your sewing room! 😊

[@katarzynapolus7887]

@@BillyMatsunaga Thank you, I am! I hope your new cute sewing room will serve you well :)

Enjoyed watching put room together. Great job ! 🎉

Great work! The room looks both beautiful and functional. Now I want one 🤔

Your sewing room looks awesome! Makes me wish I could sew LOL

[@almadeckard8360]

Bravo!

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Thank you 😊

[@dakotatwilight]

I absolutely love your sewing room. I understand what you mean about the convenience of having a dedicated space. Love your kitsuke, that obi is so beautiful, the one at the end. By the way my room has the same square footage that yours does, but is more crowded as it is almost square.

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Thank you 💚

[@rajendersingh5352]

Please upload a video on how to tie oiran style manaita obi by your self please 🙏🙏

[@francescabircher4679]

Great job and I love the wallpaper 🤩 In Switzerland we hide the cables behind that wood at the bottom of the walls. Will you show us more about the blue kimono you‘re sewing?

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Thank you 💙 Of course you’ll see more about the blue kimono 😊

[@SkyeAten]

Just lovely! Excited to see sewing tutorials there ✨

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Thank you 🧡

[@GoffCosplayCreative]

Loved seeing your sewing room come together! It's BEAUTIFUL!! And your video was just the inspiration I need to get started on tidying up my house today 😊 Thank you!

Amazing! 👏🏻

[@kenjketty7112]

Invest in a dozuki saw, it’s a lightweight razor sharp saw that you can use to cut troublesome shelves or rods or anything that needs to be cut up that you can’t get with a kitchen knife. Sandpapering it must have taken a long time!

[@BillyMatsunaga]

I’ll keep it in mind!

[@christinaczarnecki625]

beautiful, so well done !!!

[@BillyMatsunaga]

Thank you 😊

[@kenjketty7112]

Can you make a video featuring yukata made with indigo dye and Oshima Tsumugi + Yuki Tsumugi? The natural dyes in Japan are fascinating. I have done a lot of research if you’d like me to share what I know with you. Also the use of gold leaf in obi weaving is mind blowing! Please consider this topic, it would help promote traditional craftsmanship in Japan.

[@BillyMatsunaga]

First of all: yukata can’t be made out of tsumugi. But anyway, I’m doing 2 livestreams in my Patreon every month covering these type of topics. In case you’re interested in learning more about it 😉

[@jodirauth8847]

It's beautiful

I love your wallpaper! Is it available outside of Japan, any idea?

Where did you get your cutting mats?

[@BillyMatsunaga]

At my local sewing supply store. But you’ll certainly find them on Rakuten or Amazon Japan. You’ve to look for heradai.

[@heathermade7294]

Such an incredible space! Just wondering, which IKEA table is that and what are the mats called that you put on top?

Nice sewing room ! I agree with you : spiders can be cute ;) I'd like to know the name of the "fold board" (sorry for my english) you put on your table. have a nice day

ok i feel like i need to ask: whats that foldable mat-thing on your table? how do you call this and where do i get it? i feel like this could solve my no-space-for-sewing-table-fabric-slipping-of-the-table-non-stop-switching-between- desk-&-ironingboard-situation....
