Both of these increased my storage tremendously.
Please post a pic so that we can see what this looks like.
I can do it tomorrow. I have to get buttons sewn on to a couple of quilts for show and tell tonight.
Yeah, I can't wait to see your set up.
I finally had a chance to get a pic taken of my ironing center. I can put all kinds of stuff away in this dresser. The space the riser creates between the top of the dresser and the ironing board is a nice space to keep several things handy without taking up space in the drawers or on top of the ironing board.
