    I am jealous, perfect use of space, storage and a great ironing surface all tucked into a nice neat corner, love it.

    Good thinking. Amazing what a layer of paint can do!. I love the piece you created. The cost and time to fix it are real bonuses too.

    This is nice. I have a small dresser like your which I use but I have a small ironing board that sits on top. I am going to ask my hubby if he can make me a top. Is your top secured to the dresser or just laying on top of it?n what all did you use for the padding. Thanks for sharing.

    Thanks for sharing your idea and picture! I did the same thing with a long dresser from a thrift store, and it is one of my favorite things in the studio! The big board lays on top....no need to secure it. There's storage in the dresser and, most of all, I don't have to worry about the ironing board toppling over. An used buffet would work well, too.

    That was a great find. All wood, even better. Love the color choice.

    I would have loved the RED.
    My favorite color.
    Would have worked wonderfully in my room.
