I will try the garage sales (and thrift stores) for a classic one. We live in a suburban area in Texas where the garage and yard sales seem to be mostly kids clothes and toys.

Thanks!

I have a 2' x 2' piece of wood that I covered with batting and fabric and I don't use it on my existing ironing board but rather anywhere I want it. I used to put it on my spare bed but I like the height of the my kitchen counter so I usually put the board on there. It's awesome.
