I showed my DH what I wanted to sit upon my ironing board. He made it. Has slots on the bottom to hold it. Made of some kind of particle board or plywood. I covered it. It is so heavy that it bent one ironing board so I bought another ironing board from a thrift store. Felt i didn't need it after he put a large piece of melamine coated chip board over my craft table. Well, I put it back on cause didn't like regular ironing board size.
