Actually that is another project I'm doing. I'm going to use one of our current kitchen cabinets, which is about 5' x 2', for an ironing table. Then I'll have the doors and drawers of it for storage. We're having a whole new house built and our old house will be demolished so I'm using a lot of what's here that will be salvageable. Unfortunately the cabinets are too tall to be a cutting table because of wanting to have them on wheels and the fact that I'm pretty short. Other than our upper peninsula cabinets, which are way too long, all of our upper cabinets have angled ends so those won't work for it either.

I know I'm spoiled but I really want a separate cutting and ironing area.
