Dependig upon the style of your sewing machine, you could possibly upcycle it as a lamp if it is a portable. If it is an old cabinet model, you could use it as a storage bin for outdoor events and place a metal bin in the area where the working part of the machine is housed and use it as an iced-storage area and place drinks within it.

I am not sure how old your machine is, but here are some clever ideas for vintage sewing machine stands:

Is it one of those old singers ones.

Hi! I have mine just inside my entry. I keep a basket with clean masks there, and a basket for our keys. Good luck and stay safe!

I've seen them turned into lamps.

You could make it into a desk. It will need one solid surface on the top. If you purchase wood at Home Depot or Lowe's, they will cut it for free. Then just stain or paint it.
