I did'nt have space for a deep ironing area so my DH and I used the stacking drawers from Walmart to be the support under the ironing surface; turned out we made it just big enough I can iron a pair of pants without getting out the big ironing board so its just the right size, 18"x41. Used on idea I got off Pinterest to use Mod Podge and fabric to line the inside of the drawers. Love it! My sewing room looks so neater because all the mess in the drawers isn't visible! It's amazing what can be done with the plastic drawers!!!
