Cosplay-adjacent question, my living arrangement isn't so great this year and my work-from-home setup has taken over my sewing desk. I need to still make costumes for 2025, what's the best way to get a setup going for sewing? I cannot move my work equipment since I'll need them on a daily basis.

>need a new vest because I bought a cheapo Amazon one with pockets over where SLCPD and SWAT need to be
Question now is whether it's better to paint the vest markings or use one of those fabric markers you see at hobby lobby. I also need a Bible and the .45.

get a second desk/table and use the biggest of the two for what you need most room for.

Without any further context...loose fit + breathable material. Also with POCKETS. If there aren't any, make some / use something that serves the same function

Try getting a toy m1911 on Amazon and painting it. It has an ejecting mag and a slide.
Maybe get a hollowed bible so carrying it around at a con isn't so heavy.
As for the vest I am unsure.

>Second desk

I know that is the most logical and simplest answer, but it's also a space issue. My sewing desk-turned-workstation is already crammed into my bedroom and there is no space for a second desk. I've thought about using the dining table but it also seems like a huge hassle to have to reset it twice a day and ensure there's no stray thread or fabric lint in food, or the risk of getting oil stains on fabric.

Do you sew every day or multiple times a week? Do you use your desk for work for home purposes every day or multiple times a week?
How big is your room? What items need to be in your room (bed, desk, etc) and how big are they?

There are space saving solutions but it helps to know what exactly the situation is before giving recommendations.
